Photo diary - my veggie plot

Oh yes Argos have got them I also like the idea that you can do flowers and veg without disturbing the seeds

I think that will have to be one for my Xmas present list

True. I still find myself out of places to plant things, though. Scottish winter not killing off nearly enough. Possibly because I pick the ones that are hardy, tend to survive my treatment of them as well...

I wish I might eventually have a plot to grow plants that look as happy and healthy as those, Emma.

Another update

This bed has got squash, strawberries, sunflowers (thanks Donna), onions, peas, runner beans, and a cucumber in it

This bed has got mainly salad in it, radish, salad leaves, lettuce, carrots, spring onions, but I have also got some parsnips, cabbage, cauliflower and beetroot in there

Looking good Emma!!!

Unfortunately all my seeds I have been growing have died due to my kitchen installation Maybe try again next year.

It's looking really good now Emma!
