Crumbs is that the time?!!!

Minutes turn into hours when I'm gardening.
Only went out to plant a few more pansies and now I'm all behind.

Having planted the last of the aforementioned Pansies I dug a hole and finally put to earth the Magnolia tree. Out front by the way. Near the place where I knocked down the garden post. I didn't know whether to stake it or not but seeing as it looks a wee bit delicate I poked a cane in and tied the young tree to it.
At the base I planted an Anemone. Looks so lost. But I thought the tree might like a little company. Little and large or WHAT!

Also being bedded down a few more perennials in shades of red yellow and orange. As I dug I noticed loads of seedlings popping up, so I watched very carefully where my fork/spade went. The tiny fragile green shoots are the shoots of some wildflowers I scattered a little while ago. What amazed me was that I noticed them amongst the forest of weeds out there which of course I pulled up. Loads more a veritable carpet there is, but overall my stint today has made an improvement.

I'm parched now so before I set about making dinner I'll have a lonesome cuppa, Mother being in the land of Nod.

By the way whilst I pottered a robin landed on the bird table and looked at me. He was so cute I wanted to pocket him:)
