Around the side of my house is a rather dark concrete spot. To look out from the window on to these dirty dark grey slabs is very unattractive and definitely ugly.
I could clean them, I have in the past believe it or not. Anyway I thought I would take them up and create a new planting area. 
Out came the slabs. The cut slabs were edged in a rustic fashion, ie. wonky, with some old bricks that had been taken out from elsewhere in the garden. Full of sand and blue clay, perhaps this wasn’t such a great idea after all.
Initially my plan was to order in some box edging, a large urn perhaps or some topiary to be mixed with colour themed annuals and seasonal bedding in the form of bulbs and annuals.
For now I shall make do with seed sowing. 
To this bunch I shall add squash, spinach and dahlias.
It will be a riot of colour and certainly a whole lot prettier than previously. I will keep you posted.
So these are my six to share with you and The Propagator . ‘Hold up!’ I hear you say, there’s only five there. That’s right, I owe you one.
Strange times. Stay safe wherever you are. Thanks for reading. D.
