My small garden at the front is attended to by my two Afghan elves, under close supervision. They simply dig the borders and turn the weeds over when directed. The back garden is also quite small, but has a pond, raised bed, grassed area, patio with wooden seating area, recycling shelves, log store, bin store, brick BBQ area with seating......and about ten surf boards, windsurfers, kayaks as garden ornaments!!
I tend to ignore everything but the raised flower bed and the planted arrangements; occasionally I mow the grass.
The allotment though, that's a another story.....that is usually kept in quite good order and keeps my husband really busy from about April onwards; with me acting as trusty 'gofer' and chief harvester. Today he tells me he's been invited to go on a cycle trek across Europe to Russia at the end of May, so I guess I shall be promoted to head gardener for a couple of weeks.
