Winter is a time when everything slows down..even the w**ds...
Which makes it a great time for dividing plants and planting.
This bit of space was just stony wasteland really..
I planted it out all with plants I lifted from other gardens and divided..
Even the soil is saved from another garden that was going to get demolished by road works.
Today I lifted a big clump of red hot pokers that haven't flowered since the cyclone and got about 40 plants from the one clump.
And I find a crowbar is one of the best ways to lift big plants and clumps and also to divide them.
It gets in between the roots and allows them to be pulled apart and
untangled naturally rather than slicing with a spade.
Its one of my favorite things..
Recycling and replanting gardens without it costing anything..
Love nature
Love my job
