Thyme To Garden: November 2019

[ABSpareEditor]

Last month's thread is here.

November has struck, and we're already finding floods in the grounds of AB Towers.

How is the wet weather affecting your garden and allotments? It's not doing us any good!

Makes the grass too wet to cut, and a pain to get up the rest of the spuds. I want to move one (well three actually but one in particular) of the raised beds. But not while it's raining. My crop of weeds are coming on well though.

Yes, I've missed The Final Cut (caps in respect of Pink Floyd) which is frustrating.

very wet here. I finished my planned pruning during the dry and cold spells but everything is shooting again!

Looking out across my humble domain.
Through a steaming cup of coffee in the November rain.
Thinking, where to plant those tulip bulbs, it's driving me insane!

[Old_Geezer]

I'd recommend the ground, unless you have some nice big pots.

Like OG, the spuds are a pain, and *** to get clean without 20% of the garden going down the plughole :-D

[Canary42]

Sorry, I worded that badly - I did not mean OG is a pain - sorry.

Wrapped our agapanthus in bubble wrap, The Queen Mother needs protecting.

Planted my tulip bulbs, using a large iron bar as a dibber (as per Monty Dons advice), hopefully they'll be deep enough to be not worthwhile for squirrels to dig up and also deep enough to avoid frost damage.
Time will tell, come spring.
