Today is the 2nd of 4 videos in my mini series “Quick Garden Jobs For Easter” and it’s a fun one.

In last Monday’s video I asked you all “where would YOU put my new Facebook Marketplace find?” – a metal garden sculpture in the shape of a leaf.

I had SO many comments from you all, and I’ve gone with the majority decision, so I think (most of) you will approve. 😉

Hello everyone it’s Janette here from enthusiastic Gardener welcome back to my garden and this is the quick 4day series of quick Easter jobs for your garden it’s not the nicest of weathers for Easter but Easter’s come early this year I believe anyway it’s about 10° C which

I think is 50° F around that but yesterday we cleaned out Shady Corner put the new fountain in so that’s good today oh I have had such great fun talking to you all since my last Monday video about spring P plans for my garden we’ve had fun chatting and because I asked you

What should I do with my new metal Leaf sculpture which I found on Facebook Marketplace at the bargain price of £7 and I dotted it around the Garden in various spots as suggestions and I asked you what would you do anyway my idea was to put it out the front um instead of

Purple head which I hate purple head as I told you and I said what would you do so I had so many comments so many people saying don’t get rid of purple head Richard loves it others were saying oh Janette it’s Dreadful it has to go I’ve gone with the majority decision Oh yes I’m happy now we’re going on our dog walk and I’ll show you oh yes this is where I’ve put it anyway it’s around here come on Lots it’s lady see if she sees it the dog has seen Lty Farewell My friend be happy let’s see if it’s still there in half an hour when I come back there’s a man is he going to take it is he going to stop and look is he going to stop and look yes oh he’s thinking oh get my car and come back

Let’s see if it’s still there in half an hour come on Lots we are Nearing the end of our dog walk and as we turn left we’ll be able to see has it gone very exciting the Moment of Truth oh actually can’t see till we go around the Bend alas it’s still there well I suppose that was a bit much it’s now about 3 hours later I’m just seeing if it’s gone is it still there oh he’s gone it’s gone everyone someone took it oh I am so pleased someone loved purple head oh my goodness

Fantastic I am so delighted it looks amazing I don’t know what to say one minute there’s a nice Easter Island egg and there there’s a leaf Le we normally s Le I must say Richard was totally unaware about about all this and he got home and I said Richard

Richard you’ve got to watch this video so I showed him the video which you’ve just seen he was going no no no no and then when he saw at the end when it had gone you laughed didn’t you you laughed so that’s it we are off now to the Garden

Center Rich’s favorite activity because yes we are because it’s closed to the Garden CER it’s closed on Easter Sunday so it’s probably going to be very busy today yes it will be we will be very busy but we’re getting something for a project and if we don’t find what what

I’m looking for then there will be no number four in this series of vide oh it’s so windy we need to go we need to go to the garden CER thank you for watching you I’m Janette Richard up take care get this come on up let’s Go

  1. Tee hee! Loved this, Janette! 🤣
    Exciting new beginnings for Purple Head! 💜
    We had a very successful trip to our local garden centre yesterday, hope you did too!?! 🪴 🌺 🌳 🌻 😃

  2. That was great! I glad Richard didn’t hide all his gold bricks in Purple Head! I love these short videos.

  3. Lottie's wiggly little butt put a smile on my face along with your storytelling of "Will PurpleHead Find a New Home?" 😂

  4. Hi Janette, oh my goodness, it looks so cold. Leaf looks very happy among the rocks in the front garden but it must have been a relief to see that Purple Head had gone to a new home. See you tomorrow night. Love Bron xx

  5. Hello again!😊 I’m glad you made this a series! Such a great idea! I’m going to join you. I’m planting potatoes in the vegetable garden today. And then I will be planting dianthus, and phlox in the landscape. Happy Easter!❤

  6. Whew, for a moment there, I was afraid Richard had gone for a walk and brought Purple Head back “home”. Glad he didn’t but that would have been quite funny if he had! I’m loving this quick little video series. Happy Easter to you both. 🌷🕊️🪻

  7. Hello
    So funny😂😂😂 I'm going to spoil it now by saying why didn't you try your excellent paintwork on it first?😢 Might have added a new perspective to it. The leaf looks great. I could see Richard's remark about "What!!something so iconic replaced by a leaf?😂😂 That made me laugh too. Little Lottie LOVES her walks doesn't she.💞🥰🐣

  8. LOL … That is so funny and of course the Leaf looks Awesome in the front bed … ! Also from yesterday , my small bird bath fountains — well they just look pretty they don't have much sound … !

  9. 😂😂😂😂 I loved it when you were stalking the people on your walk! Love where you placed the leaf! Looks wonderful! Hugs to Richard! So sorry (well, truthfully, I'm not) about Purple Head. I'm sure he has a good home! 🥰🥰

  10. Haha, I’m so glad you did that. It was my choice. Not getting rid of purple head but putting the leaf there. I suggested, also a few smaller stones and a few tiny plants by too. You had so much fun with the purple head. He may have looked well somewhere else. On a pedestal in a contemporary corner. Don’t know if yip have one like that.

  11. 😂 OMG! I loved this comical video! And the music was perfect for yr. Thanks for the laughter this morning. lol So long purple head. Lol

  12. I love it! It looks great. Now, are you sure Richard didn’t see him missing and go looking for him…if he turns up in his garage you’ll know… he was a good sport about it. Maybe he needs a statue more suitable for the garden that can be his. 😊

  13. I'm so happy the majority went with the voice of reason! The leaf is 1,000% better than purple head! Sorry, Richard. You win some, you lose some. 😄🍂🥬🍁

  14. The leaf looks really good in the front Janette. I was wishing I lived near you cos I would have loved to have Mr Purple Head in my garden 😂

  15. Hooray! I'm so glad Purple head has gone 😂 because in its place the lovely bronze leaf. Sorry Richard 🤭 Thank you both for giving us Easter cheer with 4 videos 👏🧑‍🌾🌷🌷🌷

  16. O Janette, how could you 😢. The end of an era. At least it has gone to someone who wanted it and not down the dump. I have to admit, though, that the leaf does look nice. 😊

  17. I haven’t cared for purple head all these yrs I’ve been watching you. I’m not sad to see him go. Honestly I kinda thought Richard would see it while on your walk, and you’d come home to find him in the back garden. Glad he ended up ok with it being given away. Maybe you’ll see it in someone’s front garden one day.

  18. Hi Janette, well I'm gutted purple head has gone! I think Richard was secretly hidden it the garage. I think we haven't seen the last of purple head!
    Great vid

  19. Such a fun video today, thank you for the laughs, glad purple head man has gone off to a new home. The leaf looks really good in its place.

  20. Janette, 😂, yeah I love where you put the new leaf sculpture 🙌. How on earth did you carry it? Lott is adorable shaking her little bum, just precious. Yeah, I’m so glad that purple head has a new home😂, but poor Richard😞. Hope you both loved the garden center 😅
