I hate this time of the year. Everything is so messy. Can’t think of many things that cause as much mess as a bale of straw. Bananas are now protected. Who else wraps their Musa and sikkimensis? Thought about not doing it this year but changed my mind at the last minute.

Anyone else leave it in the ground and not bring it in?

It’s time for my tiny front porch to resemble a mini Kew. Made a start but much more to come including my huge ensette. Getting the dogs leads on is about to get interesting 😩🌴
