Just 2 more things to move. Which are going to be tricky. A fish box full of sweet peas. And a tractor tyre ( back tyre , so big ) full of rhubarb.

My very first flower on my Francis E lester rambling rose has opened.

It’s going to be a mass of flowers when the rest of the buds open. It’s so exciting    Cool .
Beautiful. Big Grin
