Garden catch up

The garden is progressing along nicely, with broad beans, potatoes, beetroot, lettuce, parsley, radish and turnips being harvested. Some of the leeks have been transplanted with more to go in when there is space. As soon as the runner beans have reached the top of the poles we will sow the rest - maybe this weekend.

In the greenhouse the melon and aubergine plants have survived, so far and the tomatoes are setting as are the peppers.

In the garden the globe artichokes are forming. I usually leave these to flower but thought, this year I may pick some.




The soft fruit section of the front garden, against the south facing wall, is now ready for planting. We just need to make a final decision on plants and order them. Next, for the front is the pond.
