Weeds at the moment! I guess you don't want a picture of them?
I have a large bag full of weeds from when I was gardening the other night. Looking forward to putting some nice new plants in their place next week when we're on leave from work.

Thanks for looking

Excellent thread! Its just (along with Vicki and Esme) inspired me to try and grow radish!

Currently I'm growing - tomatoes (baby plum), chillies (3 types, inc. one that will prob knock my socks off) and strawberries -



I've also been growing a Bramley Apple tree in a pot, that blossomed beautifully for about a week and is now deciding what to do with itself -



Same for my Dwarf Pear, and the usual herbs; mint, sage, oregano, bay, rosemary, marjoram, chives and thyme.

This year I've also planted some training nasturtium that I hope will cover a rather dull bit of fence -







Woody and I love hanging out in the garden ;o)


We really should get a gardening section on here!

I am pleased, as I've just got 6 Sweet Potato plants to put in my polytunnel.... they will stay in my 'blowaway' greenhouse for a couple of weeks, until they are large enough to be planted in the raised beds in the tunnel
