The Last Boy Sprout


The last brussels sprout from 4 that germinated, the other 3 were lost to slugs but this one's looking quite perky.

Early Summer Promise

The border's starting to grow far bigger than I expected or hoped in its first few months, though I'm realising that I haven't put in enough late spring and early summer colour. I imagine that aquilegia will no doubt seed itself throughout the garden very shortly.


Something that does provide a little colour is our globemaster alliums which are doing surprisingly well given that they're still in their pots and the bees are particularly pleased with them.



They're also very tactile and when they're in your own garden it's ok to to touch

The First Harvest


GARLIC! And lots of it! Corrina's pulled up 30 bulbs and tied them up to dry and they should see us through the year with effluvious ease :-)
