 Nothing is wasted. I decided to have a bit of a tidy up of the patio area at the back of the house. Two planters and a large tub were becoming grown over with Trailing Bellflower (Campanula poscharskyana) and Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum). Both flower very prettily with blue and pink flowers respectively so I potted up the Campanula to use elsewhere at a later date and planted the clumps of Herb Robert along one of the borders.
 NB I'm happy to let the Bellflower trail up the sides of the planters. They'll be smothered with flowers in mid-summer and buzzing with bees. 



 The grass has spread onto the paving over the years so I sliced off some mini turfs and planted them into several bare patches on the lawn...
