Look above your Garden

Look above your Garden

Light is a key ingredient in a garden. The quality varies according to the sky and sun so keep a weather-eye out.

Look above the trees in your garden and what do you see? This morning I saw a great sky with wisps of vapour trails and fine cloud. It cheered me up no end!

Normally I am looking down on the ground for work that needs doing, weeds to hoe, bugs to remove, damage clearance to be sorted. At best I am considering what crops to harvest, what flower is displaying a look that I had hoped for or how long can I put off the labouring jobs.

Today I got stuck in to pruning a Holly bush at 8.00am and filled two recycling bags of rubbish before the local authority came to convert it into compost.
I could have worried that the tops of the trees needed loping but I wasn’t going to spoil a morning sky with gloomy thoughts.

Clouds

Even if darker clouds begin to gather, look on the bright side, your plants probably need the rain.
My dark side was taking the motor mower to be repaired as it quit as the last lawn was cut the day before – lets hope it is back before the grass needs another trim!
If you have been feeding the birds it may be dangerous to look up above your garden but don’t let that put you off!
Clouds are a bit like snow in that the patterns you see will never be the same again.

At the end of the day ‘God’s in his heaven and all is right with this Gardeners world’.
