The Wisteria is almost a distant memory - EXCEPT for the Amethyst Falls on the garden tool shed! This one still has a few flowers remaining and today was the day for exposing it to more sunlight by lifting the crown of the walnut behind the shed. Not the easist of tasks but skillfully managed by Andrew who also disentangled the tralling silver birch from the Acer brilliantissimum.As if not enough, he then moved on to the Prunus kojo-mai that provides dappled shade to the Hostas in the Hostalry. The worst job of all was tying up a Paul's Himalyayn Musk rambler which had blown down and was partially obstructing a public footpath. This is a beast of a rose and both of us were bleeding from scratches. It couldn't have happened at a worse tme - just as it's trying to bloom and absolutely covered in buds. Success was declared mostly thanks to Andrew's dogged persistence!!
