Some Finishing (?) Touches To the Disabled Youngsters' Plot

Described as finishing touches, the fruit trees have been planted along the path-side of the plot. Knowing Mac though, there will be something else that has to be tinkered with. Daffodils around the plot are now about six inches high and weeding is now under way as it is now possible to see where the daffodils are coming up and not damage emerging shoots with the hoe.
