A stroll around the plot

Just a stroll around the garden last week in the sunshine...


Alfie tackling a bone


The greenhouse border.. this year tomatos, cucumbers, sweet peppers and aubergines


Mini cucumbers growing well, first one eaten on a salad over the weekend


Tomatos doing nicely, two varieties this year Premio main crop and Gardeners Delight cherry toms


The veg plot, parsnips, carrots, beetroot, lettuce, radish, sugar snap peas, runner beans, onions, cauliflowers, cabbages, swede and brussels, plus strawberries and raspberry canes...


The veg plot from the other end..


Gooseberries coming on well, we also have blackcurrants and blueberry bushes.


The rhubarb patch


Rosemary's favourite white foxgloves.


And a pink variety


Just caught a bee leaving this one


Looking back towards the house


Rosemary's favourite hebe


A bracket type fungus growing on an old sycamore stump


Oscar's favourite pastime, just sniffing around in the hopes of finding something to roll in


And of course nosy Alfie, who just follows me everywhere

Gorgeous garden, mines a wilderness & I love your dogs.

Re: A stroll around the plot

All looking fantastic Barry and very organised and productive particularly considering the short time you have lived there

A lot of hard work has clearly gone into your garden.

Re: A stroll around the plot

The dogs are looking good too, Chloe like to just wander around the garden sniffing everything ..

Re: A stroll around the plot

What a smashing garden Barry, you and Rosemary have worked very hard on it and it has paid off.

It gets my vote for Garden of the Year!

Re: A stroll around the plot

Thanks Tiff, this was a wilderness too when we came, and but for our OCD affliction it would probably still be...

Re: A stroll around the plot

Thanks Meg, and as for Oscar he would spend the whole summer just laying on the lawn and sniffing the breeze, whatever happened to that manic little ball of black fur that we brought home eight years ago...

Many thanks Mags, but most of the work is down to Rosemary in the flower borders, I am only allowed to look but not touch...

Hi

Absolutely stunning Barry.

I am 9 months down the line doing mine, and a long way from the perfection you have.

Re: A stroll around the plot

Thanks Swimmy, it's been a labour of love over four years but well worth the graft we reckon...

Re: A stroll around the plot

Fantastic Barry, the garden looks lovely and I am definitely envious of your veg plot.

Dogs are looking great too.
