2014 Calendar

Miles behind this year! Work commitments an all that!

But was nice to have full day "on't Plot"
Still a lot of empty ground! But on it!
Brassica's still to put out! once the cage netted!
Slow process! But getting there!

Allotments aren't supposed to be nice Deano but I'll make an exception in your case....................Brilliant.

That's his allotment??? I thought it was his back garden and that's why it's so smart and tidy! It certainly makes my back garden look scruffy.

I think it's his allotment but I'm sure Deano will confirm.

BM, You are correct! "Allotment"

MH! I only wish my back yard was as tidy!

First lot of peas have been replaced by a late variety (Geisha).

The grow light garden has done its job for now, so here are some July pics from slightly different angles:
Veggie cage containing carrots, red cabbage and calabrese


Tomatoes, apples and white currants invading the flower garden

Some of last year's plants looking distinctly tired now, but still producing tomatoes!

Bed 3 parsnips, beetroot, chard and a pot of leeks waiting to go in the ground


Bed 4 scarlet emperor and Serbian beans. Sharing a bed with rhubarb, blackberry and a couple of toms.

[Bill HH]

Never in the field of human gardening has so much been done by one man in such a short time.

Superb BM.
