Lurked in the GH this morning, in the warm. Pruned and tied in the toms. So heartening to see the flowers on them - especially on some I've never grown before like Gardener's Ecstasy.
Spent most of the afternoon clearing the main path edges as all sorts of unwanted plants are encroaching and narrowing the path. Cut off a number of suckers from the base of a plum tree - they look so healthy compared to the rest of the tree. I don't have much success with stone fruits - should really stick to reliable apples.
The apple mint is about 3' high and the leaves are enormous. There's a limit to how much I need for mint sauce!
