Seeds & Scavenging

Great Disapointment! having just finished our carrot box and spending hours sieving stone free soil into it we excitedly opened the carrot sachet only to find it full of stinking lettuce seed. We are now boycotting Gardening Direct and we expect all our avid readers to do the same.

On a lighter note we liberated some old decking from a demolition site. We'd like to give a big thanks to Harriet for being a fine accomplice to our crime.We now have grand plans for a sun deck.




We wove a rather natty little fence with our holly trimmings. we had ruthlesslly hacked it back a couple weeks ago as it always spiked us in the bum when we dug our potatoes.



This year we have sown 3 varieties of tomatoes - grushovka(russian pink), gardeners delight, and gigante vine. should be tasty. These seeds were supplied by the Real Seed Company which we fully endorse!
