Morning everyone. This is another victim of last autumn’s neglect, it didn’t get split and is so congested that it’s climbing up the wall 😂💙 #campanula-hoffman-blue

Yes that's how I felt too! Only I hung a line of washing out; then came the spit spot of rain I wasn't very pleased! I put my jacket on and even my combat cap but got scuppered by the downpour. Hope I can get something done in the garden 2m, I've got 3 plants to put in. Then it's where to put them!🤔I feel another extension of border coming along!😄🌺🌺🌺
