Today was all about getting the garden ready to open on Sunday as part of the National Garden Scheme - so lots to get on with.

Crimson broad bean

Activities included:

  • more work on the path and weeding and laying gravel on other paths
  • general weeding and tidying up the beds
  • planting the red mustard that had been grown in a drainpipe into the veg bed
  • sowing radishes, rocket and more mustard into the veg beds
  • sowing more crimson broad beans amongst the alliums
  • sowing more annuals including a climber - Thunbergia alata (a white black-eyed Susan), cosmos sonata (a more compact cosmos which will be good for pots)and nasturtiums
