JULY GARDENING DIARY " St. Swithun's day if ye do rain, for forty days it will remain. St. Swithun's day if thou be fair, for forty days it'll rain no more."

St Swithun was a down-to-earth Anglo-Saxon bishop, venerated by all and especially by the common folk of England. He was constantly on the move; travelling to all corners of Saxon England on foot, giving alms and feasting the poor. Born during the reign of king Egbert and in his latter years tutoring the young prince Alfred, he became one of England's best loved saints.

In keeping with his love of the common folk he requested was to be interred under the pavement outside Winchester cathedral: "Where it might be subject to the feet of passers-by and the drops of rain from on high". But in 971 his remains were brought inside the new cathedral to lie beside the Egg kings of Wessex, but not before the outraged saint had beseached God to cast down a tremendous deluge upon the workmen opening up his grave. The legend of the forty days of rain may have some scientific basis as well; the jet stream will often have settled into a static position around the 15th of July, (The Saint's feast day); if it lies north of the British Isles we may count on a long period of continental high pressure, deflecting weather systems upon the heads of the Scots and ther sundry northern tribes, and if to the south, Atlantic and northerly weather may prevail, giving a wet and dreary summer, though full of the life-giving rain that St Swithun so loved.

So, back down at ground level we are aware that the gardener's work is never finished and even now, with the beds and borders in their full blaze of summer glory, a thought must be given to winter and to next season.

Spring flowering bulbs should be lifted and such subjects as autumn flowering Crocuses may be planted to give them a good chance to develop their flowers. Any branches on plum trees showing signs of silverleaf disease should be cut out at once and burned. This disease causes a metallic silvering of the leaf and can quickly spread around the whole tree. It is usually fatal.

Now is the time for thinning the apples. If the king fruit ( The one in the middle of the cluster ) has not already been removed and there are other fruits to take its place, then it is these king fruits that should go. Pears, plums and even dessert cherries will all repay careful thinning if there has been a heavy set, and in our garden there has been this year.

In the vegetable garden the planting of brassicas should be pushed ahead just as quickly as ground becomes vacant. Continue to sow salads such as lettuce and radish for succession. A last sowing of French beans for a late crop may be made. Runner and French beans should be fed as they begin to make pods. Onions and shallots may be lifted and dried once the foliage starts to wither. And a fine sight they make hanging from the rafters in the shed. Celery must be watered frequently or it will bolt and run to seed. If the reader kept a bag of soot from last Autumn's chimney sweeping, as I'm sure we all did, a dusting of this makes an excellent deterrent to celery fly (One might try the local chimney sweep for supplies, I believe he advertises in this publication). Fruiting tomatoes should be fed regularly.

This is a good time to gather herbs for drying, tied up in small bundles they make handsome companions to the knots of onions in the shed.

Faded flower buds of delphiniums, lupins, and other early flowering perennials should be cut out before seed is set to encourage secondary growth. Roses too, should be regularly dead-headed.

For autumn flowers of lupins and delphiniums, the plants should be cut down at the beginning of this month and watered with a liquid fertiliser.

Cut grass makes an excellent mulch for carrot and spinach beds and around bush fruits, raspberries and sweet peas, lilies, dahlias, gladioli and other flowering plants, though not laid on too thick for fear of starving the soil of nitrogen.

As roses come to the end of their first flush of flowering, they can be fed with a high potash fertiliser to boost the second lot of flowers. Dead-heading of all faded blooms should be carried out at

every opportunity.

Dahlias can be fed now but be careful to keep the feed well away from stems and leaves. Taller varieties should be securely staked.

Towards the end of the month we may start propagating many shrubs. For lack of space I refer reader to the relevant literature for methods of propagation. Cuttings of forsythia, flowering Currant, escallonia, weigela and deutzia and many other subjects will all root easily.

Whilst we may allow ourselves on occasion to sit back in the shed indulging in a long pipe and quiet ruminations over our onions and herbs so fragrantly drying above us in the rafters, with its soundtrack of cooing wood pigeons and on the wireless, the clatter of Australian wickets a-falling, we must still occasionally gird ourselves to keep the hoe going as often as hoers' elbow will allow. All borders should receive a vigorous stirring from the Dutch hoe at least every seven days.

PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT UPDATE Many residents are saying that Horam has had more than its fair share of new housing development in the last few years. No sooner has “Merrydown Village” been absorbed, it was quickly followed by “Four Seasons”, “Rosemead Place” and now “The Willows” (just before the new Crematorium), which have added a further 234 dwellings.

Also, more is to come, with recent planning permissions, including for: -

38 dwellings on the south side of Horebeech Lane

-

several sites off Chiddingly Road, totalling some 85 dwellings

Thankfully, a proposal to build on the field between Rosemead and Laundry Lane (crossed by the footpath) has been refused. Thanks go to the many residents who wrote letters or signed the petition, and to our new District Councillors whose representations at Wealden’s Planning Committee (on top of our own) helped to secure this.

The pressure from landowners and developers is relentless though.

Of course, there is a need for new housing nationally, but we are often finding that not enough attention is given to local needs, maintaining the distinctive character of places, or the capacity of infrastructure - like doctors, dentists, drainage, or roads.

However, local residents can have a bigger say in what happens if they have their own “neighbourhood plan”. The Parish Council began this process a couple of years ago and has now produced a first Draft Horam Neighbourhood Plan (HNP). It can be viewed online (see below), while an exhibition and drop-in sessions have been held.

The key to the Neighbourhood Plan’s effectiveness will be demonstrating that it carries broad support within the community. So, to help ensure change in the parish for the better, please read the Draft Plan and complete the online questionnaire - see www. horam.com (or pick one up from Samuels Estate Agents in the High Street) - and submit it before the consultation closes on 3rd July. Thank you.

Darch`s Wood Formerly part of Heatherden Estate, the 40 acre woodland site was bequeathed to the Cross-In-Hand Amenities Society and was renamed Darch`s Wood in 1994 in honour of Mrs Margaret Marr Darch who wanted the woodland to be for the benefit and enjoyment of the public.

The Amenities Society was formed in 1970 to protect historically important buildings and lands of Cross-In-Hand.

The Society’s role in managing the wood is to restore, enhance and maintain the woodland, which involves the removal of invasive laurel and rhododendron, clearing areas around veteran trees, and making good the footpaths. The natural habitat is being enhanced by retaining areas of dead wood for small animals and insects, clearing silt from the pond and watercourses inhabited by fish and aquatic creatures and by the planting of native tree saplings. Some activities cease during spring and summer to encourage bird nesting. An ornamental bridge, benches and fencing are being repaired and maintained.

The benefits of the Society`s efforts can already been seen by the return of bluebells, common spotted orchids and other woodland flowers. These attract insects such as the speckled wood butterfly and golden ringed dragonfly.

The long term aim of the Society is to reverse decades of neglect and to bring Darch`s Wood back to being a `gem` of natural woodland that anyone can visit for a stroll, a picnic or to walk the dog.

The Society is a charity and all of its members are volunteers. Some volunteers form a `work party` that go to the woodland once a week to help with the clearance and maintenance work. The Society relies on a small membership fee, a long term Forestry Commission grant and generous donations of funds and materials needed to carry on with the necessary work. There is a lot to do.

If you would like to get involved by joining the Society, making a donation or joining the work party please get inHoram touch & byVines visiting theAdvert Society`s web site - chamsoc.org.uk - and email thePage Membership Secretary, Diary JUNE 128x45mm_Layout 1 12/05/2023 16:48 1 Mike Baker.
