As I’m tired and haven’t anything I feel like writing about.
Campanula
The first runner bean has set. I adore runner beans.
Lavender
Swiss chard comes in wonderful colours, bright red, pink, yellow and white.
The grapes look promising don’t they. They usually rot before they ripen however, I only keep the vine from sentiment (cutting from my mother’s vine from many years ago) and because it shades the greenhouse nicely.
A wonderful garden – I guess you have green fingers.
Any plant I touch, dies. A slow painful death.
That’s really sad, Geena. So why did I laugh when I read it?
Must be the way you tell ’em!
Love the look of the grapes – we are thinking of buying a grapevine to have in the greenhouse; this might just be the encouragement I needed!
My greenhouse is very humid and the grapes need a drier atmosphere in the autumn to ripen without rotting. I should also thin the grapes out in the bunch, but I’m too lazy to do that without a guaranteed result. They are easy to grow, but need care to grow really well. I think you’d be good with that.
The bean’s my favourite – it almost looks rude with all those fabulously loud flowers and this little green weiner bean with a shrivelled flower on its tip! Lovely quality photos.
mm. what is it probing? Looks more clawlike than phallic, fortunately.
