Digging Daphne - sounds like scooby doo?
Nice sunny day, not too cold, managed to get a couple of hours in the garden. Dug out the two dead Daphnes; a fairly easy job as there wasn't much of a root system left. Main difficulty was not disturbing the cyclamen growing round them too much. Not sure what the replacments will be.
Also had a go in the fruit cage - pulled up plenty of weeds and hacked back the brambles coming from next door. Also pruned the redcurrant, whitecurrant, blackcurrant and jostaberry and cut back most of the raspberries (didn't quite finish before it was time to go in and cook tea). Not ideal timing for pruning this fruit, but glad it's done. Also added some compost to some of the veg beds.
