Instant garden

I cut back the shrubs, weeded the courtyard and cleared out the arrosage irrigation channel which flows across the back of the yard.  Soon it will be time to put back all the items moved to allow the painter to repaint the garage/utility room damaged by water last year.  Finally the instant garden was potted up.  It is a bit late this year as I had to wait to see if our neighbours would be back in time to water it during our forthcoming absence.
