Continuing on from the earlier mission at GG Richmond’s sponsored ‘Three Pigeon’s Plot’ in Buccleuch Gardens, Richmond, Steph and Anita continued to weed out grass from the plot before digging in another two ‘triffid’ plant supports and sowing dark blue sweet peas and luscious poppy ‘peony double black’ at the base .

Fennel, Honesty and Bupleurum were also sown where grass had just been weeded out and also around the recently pruned pampas

After tidying up and composting all the green waste, Steph sowed Night Scented Stock in ‘The Buccleuch Bed’ at the Arcade and Anita watered the plants in the Arcade.

Very best of luck to Steph in Sunday’s London Marathon.

Look out for another Buccleuch Garden’s planting mission next week to complete the ‘Sow Good, Sow Fine, Plant Time’ pun and ensure our sponsored riverside gardens remain blooming and beautiful this summer.
