Unexpected autumn storm

Autumn is quince-yellow

On the run

Strawberries

Too too too beautiful

Concreting

Again... 

Footings for our next wall. 

All good things

Rag ends of our only successful tomato crop: currant tomatoes. 

Peas and beans

Snow peas and climbing beans ('Westralia'), home sown into punnets a fortnight ago and newly planted into the veggie patch. 

Autumn crop

A twice-cropping raspberry, once over Christmas, and again in autumn; what's not to love?! 

(Unknown variety)

A restart

So I've realised how long it's been since I last updated this old blog. I can't even blame it in the new baby, since my wee boy is almost nine months old (yes!). Anyway, with a view to brevity (never a strong point of mine), I'm going to try something different, more of a 'photo or three a day 'in a garden theme. What's growing, what's flowering, what we're picking, what's inspiring, a la minute... Sort of. 

To kick us off...

Baby watermelons, quite gooseberry-like with those little spikes and stripes. 

 Love me xx
