A quieter task day with many regular volunteers on their holidays but still very productive. Edging and weeding of flowerbeds and treatment of wooden features were the main tasks, with pruning of shrubs and hedges ongoing too.
Tree sculpture Midnight looked much better for another coat of preservative after our patching-up last time but unfortunately it's now in serious decline and we will have to start thinking about what to do next as it will reach a point when it has to be removed. It's hard to tell when this will be but we'd guess not more than another year.
We've been given some hanging basket planters by Friends of Rose Hill and we've been thinking about unusual ways to use them. Watch this space!
Thank you to generous visitors to the park, who donated over £18 in our collection bucket!
