What a difference a few weeks makes

It's the garden again and we are enjoying lettuce, chard and kale - which is amazing when it is picked fresh and eaten within the hour of picking. Looking forward to onions, broad beans and garlic, when that is eventually ready for picking.

The flowering parts of the gardens are coming on, it takes a while to fill the spaces, and some things are doing better than others.

Here are a few pictures:

alliums and grasses

front beds filling up

broad beans, nearly ready to eat, need a bit more sunshine for everything

Garlic, onions, and somewhere some strawberries

Japanese onions???

spicy lettuce

Chard and kale

We have pleached the leylandii hedge, which gives more space and you can see the herb bed
