Final Garden Task For 2023 & A Very Delightful Surprise 🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁

One year ago I collected all my garden leaves, put them in two huge bags and stored them round the back of my garden cabin. And I honestly have not looked at them since.

Now we are one year on and it’s time for the next annual leaf collection. So I thought I’d check my two bags of leaves to see what, if anything, has happened. And the result would determine whether or not I do the same thing again this year.

And … oh my goodness … I am absolutely delighted with the result. It appears that all the leaves really have broken down into gorgeous composted mulch which is going to be “garden gold” for my flowerbeds. Why have I never done this before? I truly am converted to this method!

And so today I’m picking up leaves yet again, and this job comes a very close second to my other least favourite garden job, which is planting bulbs. But now I know how wonderful they are at breaking down, I have renewed enthusiasm for picking them all up … and that’s what I’m doing in today’s video - my last “garden jobs” video for 2023.
