Busy getting a gîte garden ready for its first guests 🐝

This is one of the properties where I maintain the garden, and also help out with turnarounds if I’m free. It’s an absolutely stunning gîte that the owners, Anya and Axel, have worked extremely hard on. If you fancy some luxury in a beautiful setting, take a look. 🐝🌼

Spent the weekend opening up the swimming pool for Suis de Soleil in Brézilhac and also mowed the lawns, making sure that patches of wild flowers remained for the pollinators. I’ll check how the pool is progressing later today. **dsareflowerstoo

Had a busy week last week on a garden in the village for a elderly couple. The garden had become to difficult for them too maintain. It’s now w**d free and easier to access. I’ll go back in a month and give it another tidy up.
Added bonus was kittens!

We’re nearly into May which is the month when all the pollinators are at their busiest. These hard working little creatures will be making the most of all the wild flowers that open up at this time of year. With this in mind, please try not to mow your lawn during May, or if you feel that you must mow, please leave a wild area for the daisies, dandelions etc to grow. **dsareflowerstoo

Hi all! I haven’t posted on here for about a year so I thought I’d update you all. I have still been working, but I had a difficult year personally last year.

My daughter and her fiancé announced that they were going to have a baby, my first grandchild, who was due 2 days before my birthday last September. However, after a smooth 29 weeks pregnant the baby arrived by emergency C-section. One mad dash back to the UK ensued and I met my tiny granddaughter, who weighed a little over 2lb, and was covered in monitors in an incubator. Willow Marie had arrived. She’s now a happy, healthy, almost 10 month old miracle.
My older and only brother became extremely unwell and unfortunately passed away the day after my birthday in September. Between diagnosis and his passing I spent sometimes hours a day talking too him. He was a very special man and I miss him terribly.
My year did have less stressful times. Dave and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary in the July, and we spent two glorious weeks in South Africa. It was incredible, but with Willow only being a week old when we left I couldn’t help but worry.
In between multiple trips to the UK I did manage too get some work done, I will attach some pics. Hopefully I’ll keep my page updated this year 🐝

Two pools, two days. Both look equally inviting. Didn’t take pics of the gardens that I did at the same time. Just a bit of w**ding and mowing.
