Preparations for the Bedding Border

 

I had forgotten that I ordered thirty Antirrhinum "Madam Butterfly" bedding plants in February. So when they arrived this week, it was necessary to plant them now, and hopefully they will be OK when we go away at the beginning of June.


First of all, I had to cut back all the foliage of the daffodils that finished flowering weeks ago.



And clear it all to the compost bin.



The hardest part is always digging over where the plants will go.



And raking to a fine tilth.



Finally thirty small holes were made with a trowel and filled with compost, ready for planting. 



Maybe need some help next year.
