My garden this spring- i didn't sow any seeds because i'm stupid!!
Borage going nuts! Yay! Bees love me!
Borage again
Rocket on the left, beans on the right and onions
we have cola on the far left (behind nasturtium) and volunteer brassicas, mint absolutely blossoming the last 2 weeks! Strawberries now in hanging baskets!
all the strawberries flowering since late winter and hopefully soon some will be ready to eat!
strawberry spinach in the middle. Alliums do not take kindly to replanting. oops.
yellow nasturtiums came out of nowhere! Oak lettuce was tasty and fruitful! Only shame is that it is an awkward long skinny shape (like an overgrown rocket leaf) which i hate. I prefer them round like tom thumb- though less wrinkly! (I'm fussy i know). Has a "sugar pea" like flavour.
Dill, only took 4 years to FINALLY freaking grow one!
Rocket, brigade, pegasus and "our hybrid heirloom one" that we've been growing ourselves for about 10 years. Dad recons it crossed with a radish?
Blueberry flowers! Unfortunately one of them died- so not sure i'll get anything this year :(
Bit hectic! Cape gooseberry dominating the blue barrel. The dill is a tree!
Nasturtiums are quite pretty even if they stink. Climbing up the fence too is quite pretty! Borage actually grows if it is in the soil- who knew?!
cape gooseberry - tasted one today- the flavour is sour then sweet. So odd! Floral, fruity and tomatoey- but not much. Insane! I quite like it.
Snails i will murder you all. My poor yacon!!!!
spearmint
persimmon growing some buds- you can see my poor cotton plant died just before the flowers bloomed when a frost killed it, i should have figured a way to cover it. oh well. :'( I would have had 30 cotton balls! SO FREAKING SAD!!!! Snails like to eat my cotton seedlings. Weirdos.
Kale and brussel sprouts slowly being murdered by my father, some tomato seedlings out of view.
FINALLY in the ground the pepino melon survived the winter and FLOURISHED. I have one that the snails got to- realy stunts it. Rude buggers...
As you can see the valerian looks fine- what you don't know is it entirely died in the winter and came back up. Last winter it didn't die- how odd?!!
Beans and nasturtium under the tree with a "volunteer" borage- i had been throwing borage flower heads over on purpose praying for some to grow!! Haha. You can hear the humm of the bees!
PIGFACE! From a cutting took 3 years to grow- then my father chops off 50% of it just before flowering season- WHAT AN A- HOLE
wounds from him killing my plants are not even fresh but it is the reason why i stopped sowing seeds, because in fact i had sown seed- but he RIPPED THEM OUT all 3 times, so i just give up.
