It is a busy time in the garden right now as the May weather has provided perfect growing conditions.
Kim is busy looking after the perennial and shrub beds and preparing summer bedding for later displays…
My job is the vegetable plot where I am growing potatoes, beans and peas, tomatoes, onions and courgettes.Ā All coming along very nicely indeed.
After a couple of hours labour each day, it is time to sit back and enjoy…
Have Bag, Will Travel 
Looking very good

I have found that bok choi grows very quickly and with only about one square foot of space I can cut off the outside leaves every few days and keep having green vegetables in my diet with very little effort.

Brilliant! I miss my veg. patch. I always let the flowers look after themselves in favour of encouraging stuff for the dinner plate.

I agree Margaret. I let Kim look after the flowers and she lets me look after the vegetables.
