庭の紹介

 夫婦で庭づくりを福岡の郊外で2003年に始めました. 赤土むきだしの斜面にまず階段や園路をつくって芝をはり、果樹やバラ、ハーブなどを植えました.
 2010年にイギリスの有名なガーデンの、シシングハースト、モティスフォントアビー、ヒドコートマナーなどを回り、その素晴らしさに圧倒され、それから自分たちで小さくても素晴らしい庭をめざして庭づくりをつづけています.

HORSE MANURE (馬糞)


We went to a riding club to get horse manure yesterday.  
Two women were riding in a riding ground. 
We got about twenty bags of manure. 
(The bags are for sandbag.)




昨日、馬糞をもらいに乗馬クラブに行きました
乗馬場で二人の女性が馬に乗っていました
20袋ほどの馬糞を頂きました
(袋は土嚢用です)

A half of horse manure was stored in the compost containers (a left bin). 
The center bin is for more matured compost, 
and the right one is for less matured. 
The rest of manure was stored in bags to use as mulch for roses. 


馬糞の半分はコンポスト容器に入れました(左側)
真ん中は熟成の進んだ堆肥入れ、右は未熟性の堆肥入れにしています
あとの半分はバラのマルチングに使うので袋に入れたまま保存

We started to prune roses yesterday. 
Horse manure is used as mulch. 

バラの剪定を昨日始め、馬糞はマルチに使います

    I will be pruning and mulching my roses too at the end of the month. I have just bought myself another David Austin rose (to go in a pot) - Darcey Bussell - which is a nice deep red. I am really looking forward to receiving it.
    I hope your pruning and mulching goes well.
    Best wishes

      It is exciting to plant new roses, isn't it.
      I cannot wait for early summer to come!
