Gardening




So, I decided today was the day to finally get the rest of our bits and bobs into the veg patch......
We spent the afternoon in the garden weeding, digging, planting and watering - I planted veggies and Eve planted the much longed for snap dragon and alyssa plants she'd chosen at the garden centre.
Then she watered them.........then she watered the patio.....lovely muddy puddles......

As you can see, the veg patch still looks like rather weedy, but it now has a pretty border.....



Elsewhere in the garden, we have loadsof apples growing this year - so lots more apple and roasted garlic chutney for Christmas presents, I think.






















And here are a couple of resurrected plants - the sambucus is in flower after nearly dying when we moved it out of its pot a couple of years ago, and the lupin was almost destroyed by rotten blackfly but is now growing flowers again.
