You're garden is looking great!

POW here at the forum is Picture of the Week...although it's more like picture of the month, right now! I agree with Deb, it would be a great submission! Hint, hint, hint.

Your garden looks so beautiful. It is neat, laid out well and shows the love of a good steward of the land.

So, finally an update. As you can see things are starting to come on. Still a little behind our neighbours, but have been able to stop buying veg, and within the next couple of weeks should have more than we can eat ourselves. At the moment we're cropping cucumbers, peppers, aubergine, tomatoes, peas etc, all the usual stuff. Just started to get purple pole beans which will be in the pot tomorrow and the corn and melons are coming on nicely. We got a lory load of well rotted mushroom compost which were using as a top dressing/mulch for all the legumes, and digging it in for the new ones going in. Other than that just the constant battle with the weeds.
