‘..a good coat of looking-at…’

The gardener Alan Titchmarsh quoted his dad as saying that sometimes, what a garden needs is ‘a good coat of looking-at’.

Having yesterday incorporated a land mass of grass cuttings into the compost layered with rotting straw and wood ash, I know just what he meant.

So, just now, the garden is getting a good coat of looking at..

Aquilegia is one of the flowers used to attract invertebrates into the Vegetable Garden.
