Photos in June

Abigail decided to take some pictures of the garden a couple of days ago.  Here are the results.

Rain and growth: bring out the mower

Lots of rain and suddenly everything is growing like crazy. I mowed for the first time since March?


Various photos for the record. Need to eat those salad leaves...

The Chelsea Chop

We knew we should be cutting back the sedum at this time of year but couldn't bear it. But saint Monty of Don did it on the BBC so we copied.  We also hope to get a few cuttings from it. Stupidly I had no pots around when I snipped, so casually used a somewhat shallow spare pot tray. This was pointed out to not be a long term solution, so they are now in proper pots.


Raised beds status

The spuds are doing well, and I've bought more. Compost so they can be piled higher.
