IN & OUT April to May 2020

In today's first shot, we see the corner where my fruit mostly is. The rhubarb in the end corner, with blueberries and a couple of cauliflowers in front, the gooseberry and blackcurrants round the side, and raspberries surrounding it all.

Back home to the back garden now - and here we see a broken ceramic farm duck sticking its head out of the borer of hawthorn, rose, yew, jasmine, lemon balm, primrose, bluebell...

This shot shows from the last down to the kitchen windows - planted with rose, primrose, lychnis, yew, bulbs, violet, cyclamen, wild strawberry, etc. My next photo is of the area sited on the other side of the garden - where the smaller apple tree used to live til I chopped it down. You can see the old stump and some of the sawn off logs from the trunk. You should also be able to make out the yellow pom-pom bush Liz gave me and a few other plants.

Next, we move into May 2020, and I share shot of the front stretch again - with all the mushroom com post I could spare scattered as mulch on top the well dug and replanted stretch from kitchen window towards poly tunnel.

Back to the allotment and you can see all the hard work Liz has put in to get rid of the weeds, while I focus on watering and picking/planting the crops. The marigold was a bush of a plant, so I split it this past week and it is now in 3 new locations as well as down the plot. The onions and garlic are being pulled and the shallots are gone.

Here, you can see how neat and tidy the plot looks now Liz is helping me with it. you can see my strawberry beds, onions, lentils...
