In years gone by I could have sent it into ‘That’s Life’ as a ‘naughty’ vegetable (which is actually a fruit, yes, yes, yes)

Lol. The worst bit is getting rid of the waste, but at least I keep the wood for the fire next winter!

We are going to eat our two remaining chickens in a month time. Next year we start over with a different breed in a new coup.

Well the rest of the garden may look like the Kalahari but Lady BC’s lovingly tended pots are showing plenty of big blousy flowers.

In late April and early May posted the following images, the first is of sweet corn I’d been pricking out and the of two banana plants I’d just taken delivery of.

I thought I’d show the latest photos of the same plants.

I convinced that those banana leaves are the size of a Humpback whales flippers :slightly_smiling_face:

First year of having a greenhouse so I did what all kids do and planted some sunflower seeds…


Amazing the rate they grow.
