Gardening 2022

Been dragging rubbish out from under the vegetation this afternoon.

At least now there's less chance of me tripping up and breaking my neck!
Oh, and met a couple of the neighbours who are also new (and are cyclists!)

This year's squash harvest. Bit smaller than usual, but should last a while

First Guernsey Lily (Nerine sarniensis) of the year. Could be up to a dozen more flower spikes still to come, in one fairly small pot.

This year has been a super year for sweet corn (I grew " Lark" an F1 hybrid) which I'll certainly grow next year, it's very sweet and only needs warming up, if that.
Plums, apples and blackberries also top notch.
Broad beans didn't crop too well, which is a shame as I love them.

If you’re after some roses to plant for the winter, Parkside nursery have a sale on atm(you have to visit(5 min from the A556 M6 junction)).
We visited on Sunday and picked up a number of them for £5 a pop. Hopefully they’re as successful as our crop this year for cut flowers for the house.

Waited 2 years but about to harvest our first lemons
