Yet more fig leaves! |
The fig is dropping its very large leaves quite fast now and, along with all the other leaves, are finding their way to the compost heap for future use. Funny how some leaves go such beautiful colours and other such as the pear leaves just go from green to dark brown! All these will be blown onto the grass then 'hoovered' up with the mower as the chopping not only assists the composting process but more importantly, makes collection so much easier I know Monty D. bangs on about compost and stirring it all the time. We are not in that much of a hurry and in any case, there's more to life than stirring compost heaps! Having said that; Chris has been known to turn it over into the other bay - when it's been emptied but we don't ever do more than that. Incidentally, we do make very fine compost!
