Sheila helped out at Braywick Heath Nurseries on a differenr day than usual, and met with a whole different group of regular volunteers. I started off by potting up 36 cordyline plants into larger pots, and then moved on to weeding the borders in the outside sales area. I removed all the unsightly tall weeds, and then moved on to pulling out all the nettles ( after changing my gloves to some without holes in the fingers!). Looks much better!

Not on fire, but a bit tingly - pulling nettles whilst wearing shorts is not an ideal combo!
