I popped outside this morning to empty the bin and couldn’t resist a quick look around the garden. Being in the garden first thing in the morning is so relaxing the sun was shinning and birds singing and I wandered around, cup of ginger tea in hand dead heading this fiddling with that. I ended up grabbing my secateurs and sniped the dead wood from my thyme and sage bushes. Then I gathered a bunch of Hellabours to put in a vase indoors. If you are going to use Hellabours for cut flowers always sear the stalk bottoms in boiling water then add to a vase of clean cold water. This helps to stop them from going droopy.
