Been busy sowing and planting out today. I'm way behind, but things will soon catch up.
Broad beans, chard , leeks, are all in the ground, and seem to be happily growing on.
I'm going for more flowers this year, and have bought some bee and butterfly friendly flowers for the fairy garden under the rose.
Calendula and nasturtium in the front garden, along with a mixed seed packet with cornflowers, poppies etc.
Hanging basket of nasturtium for the back fence.
As for veg, peas, beans and parsnip, beets, globe artichoke, (a new one for me this year) Jerusalem artichoke, (also new)sunflowers, sweetcorn, courgettes, hanging basket tomatoes. Much more to go.
Saw my first honey bee today, supping on the dandelions and damson flowers.
Oh, and another new fruit, i bought a rather sad looking honey berry last year. Its recovered very well, so that will be going in too.
I love this time of year. Its so exciting when you pop out to the minni greenhouse in the morning and see those wonderful tiny green shoots just peeking through where there was nothing the day before.
