Gardening Notebook

Gardening at the sharp end. An account of the agony and the ecstasy of a keen gardener as she gets to grips with a much larger plot than the one she was used to. Hopefully others can learn a lot from her discoveries and mistakes.

Name: The Enthusiastic Gardener
Location: Norfolk, United Kingdom

I am relatively inexperienced but a very enthusiastic gardener, who has just taken over a nice-sized (for the UK) plot of almost half an acre. To some extent, like all gardeners I am learning as I go, but I have been studying the subject very intensively for some time. I am also a keen amateur belly dancer.

Bulbs, bulbs bulbs!

Bulbs, Bulbs, Bulbs!

I've just had hundreds of bulbs delivered which I should be merrily putting in the ground over the next few weeks. The bad news is that I am so busy at work at the moment that I'm not sure how on earth I can find the time, and I have spent quite a bit of money on them.

What's more I'm not even sure we will be here on this plot next spring. Mind you if we end up selling up then the garden would look spectacular next spring for viewers, but that's not the greatest incentive for back-breaking bulb planting is it?

Still, I will press on and try to just get them done, say 20 at a time. I'm sure it will all turn out beautiful in the end.
