Lifted dahlias - popped in potato sacks in garage

Cut back and lifted chrysanthemums - packed root into crates n the plot greenhouse

Harvested leeks, beetroot, carrots, parsnips, red and green cabbage.

Picked some ripe tomatoes and red peppers from the plot greenhouse!

Winter's arrived - meteorologically speaking

It's warmed up a bit

A sprinkling of snow and icy temperatures so no gardening this week

Watercress frosted

No snow just ice

Watercress a bit if a survivor

​

No gardening this week due to the small fact that it was Christmas and also we had some poor weather

We had some snow but not a lot and it didn't stick around for long.

Busy keeping bird feeders topped up and water in the birdbath thawed.
