Planting the fruit cage

So we went to a plant auction at the weekend - expensive move!

However we are now the proud owners of 12 raspberry canes, 3 redcurrant bushes, 1 gooseberry bush, 2 tayberry plants, 2 blueberry plants, an apricot tree and a cherry tree - phew!

Bidding on them was fun, planting them all was hard work! However, the lovely boy and I managed to do the lot and put up the new polytunnel too!

(The fruit cage is yet to be purchased, I have seen a nice big one online, and so made the fruit bed the same size as the fruit cage just in anticipation that the bushes will grow big and be fruitful and need to be protected! ;)

Here is the rather lovely new polytunnel (which was a massive bargain!)

and here is the fruit bed/cage (when it arrives!) planted with all the lovely fruit bushes.

Fingers crossed for some lovely fruity treats this summer!

My little secrets:
Polytunnel: only £35 from eBay!
Fruit area, planted with weed barrier membrane covering the area - hoping this will make it much easier to maintain!
