End of winter grape vine sprig

Such a lovely, and exciting, surprise to see the first new leaves, and I haven't even had time to prune the vines yet!

I pruned them yesterday (Sunday 25 August) - sadly, that little leaf came off. I am hoping I am not too late or have done damage to the fruiting.

Washing hose time again - the big dry

Everything is so, so dry, it's time to get the hoses out from the washing machine, to see if it makes a difference.

7 Sept 2019 -  Saturday - cleaning and laundry day. Good time for the hose on the lawn.

Looking much better as the weather heats up, and haven't the broad beans grown?!

Ficus #1 powers on + updates

From this little thing, to now, we have made much progress. I will be so pleased when it stretches to pass over the wooden stake here (on the left):

I've been watering this quite a bit, and am hoping it will reach over the wood post by the end of the next summer. It helps hold the old fence together! There are new shoots, so maybe it is possible...?
