Finally the weather has warmed up and I've been able to get down to the allotment. I'm still using last year's leeks are as I was unable to dig them up over the winter due to the floods. The rhubarb is just beginning to get going, so I'll soon be picking those early stalks. I planted my shallots today so watch this space.
lovely collage shot ~ I got myself some flower bulbs to plant this year ~ I am in a first floor flat and only have a small balcony area about 2 x 5 foot, but managed broad beans, peas, tomatoes, cucumbers and lots of flowers last year ~ all in pots, my mini sweetcorn, aubergines and strawberries failed :(
@rosiekind Yes, I planted one row today, will plant the rest this week. We're going away on Monday so I want to get them in before then. I think we could still get frost but you could always cover them with fleece.
I love the collage, how did you do different shapes for it? your allotment is starting to come together, I wish I had one near me, we are so far behind in this.
Nice collage. It looks very neat - better do something about my weeds... Looking forward to my rhubarb which seems to be oblivious to the weather - think I might run to making some jam with it this year...
still too chilly here by far! Even Kiev was warmer!!
