Wonderful gardening day
The sun shone all day - and it was warm. Meriel took the opportunity to spend all Jonah's school day gardening and loved every minute of it.
The maincrop potatoes are now planted and mulched. Elephant garlic and Mizuna are racing ahead, and the summer purple sprouting, brussel sprouts and peas are just starting to come through. No sign yet of the leeks. I'm waiting for asparagus to arrive any day in the post. The strawberries are looking very happy.
I started clearing / rearranging the 'junk' space at the back of this photo. It involved doing battle with a large Camelia which was simply in the wrong place. One day - when the finances recover a little from the building work - I want a greenhouse along the back more or less where the compost bins are on the right. So I'm rearranging the space to accommodate it to save doing it all later on.
