NEW GARDEN ERA!



This week saw the beginning of a new era as we welcomed Andrew to PTC Garden. After 20 years he has replaced Chris who left last September. Andrew lives locally and is a countryman.  He comes with planty of experience and even brought sunshine on his first day.  His garden favourites are the early flowering plants  - snowdrops and Hellebores and so has arrived at the perfect time of year. 




However, it was straight in at the deep as he got stuck in to organising the compoast bays.  Last spring was so wet, we hadn't completely emptied the one bay and I had compost of differing vintages in both bays!  In no time at all, it was all sorted and much mulching of  borders completed.  He took great care of the lawn by laying down boards to avoid wheelbarrow ruts. 

As if that wasn't enough, we had a huge bonfire and disposed of the montains of tulip tree brash plus lots of other trimmings.
