We lost my mother in law last january and my father in law has been left in the house by himself they have a large back garden and a coldframe, my mother in law was a keen gardener and always kept her garden looking immaculate but since she died the garden has been left except from the lawn being mowed, after speaking to my husband and my father in law my husband and I are going to take on responsibility for the garden and get it back to looking good and use the greenhouse for tomatoes, peppers and maybe courgettes/zucchini, I am really looking forward to the milder weather to start getting stuck into to the garden and making it come alive again it needs a lot of weeding and cutting back of plants but we will get there I am sure, I have already got myself excited about starting seeds indoors and transferring to the garden or coldframe. Watch this space for future developments !!

What a lovely thing to do in your mother-in-laws memory. Your FIL will no longer feel guilty about leaving the garden to run riot and you'll have the fun of growing things in the greenhouse and bringing the garden back to life again. Do keep us updated on your progress.

I'm really happy for all of you, and I look forward to seeing what you're up to come spring.
