The Garden!

One of the main reasons for starting this blog is to document how things are doing in the garden. This is the first year that I'm a) living in a house with garden that's not cement and b) that I'm here over the summer to enjoy. So win win.

Here are a few photos I took last week to show the garden in Spring. There's a lot of work to be done, but there are some nice Spring bulbs up at the moment.

I've been growing lots of seeds in my new greenhouse. I have tomatoes, broccoli, sweetcorn, sweet peas, sunflowers, snap dragons, petunias, pansies and marigolds. I think I probably planted them all a bit early, cos they're getting fairly big and I can't plant them out until May apparently...

This is my pride and joy! It might not look like much now, but in a few months this will be full of vegetables. It was completely covered in weeds when I first moved in, so it's been a lot of work over the winter to dig it up. I think it's finally ready! You can't really see on the left border there are some raspberry canes and on the right is a ?red?blackcurrant bush too so hopefully we'll have some fruit in the summer!

I'll try to put some more garden pics up in the next day or two as I do more work - if there's much to show for it!
