Luckily this end of the plot doesn't have as much bindweed so it was a case of digging the area over and pulling out any weeds. From an area 22 foot by 5 foot we only filled our weed bin thing half way. At the other end of the plot the same amount of weeds would come from a 4 foot square!
Most of the plants are perennials and despite it looking a bit well spaced now they are all planted to allow for spread.
The gaps will have annuals like marigolds and nasturtiums. We have also planted some bulbs so we get spring flowers.
But, the most important bit, we now have a number! All the plots have to be numbered so with a piece of rock I brought home from the beach, a small tester pot of outdoor paint and a marker pen Plot '4' is now numbered.
