I would like a place I can talk about the random happenings in my garden that don’t justify a stand alone post. Exciting things like my tomato plant finally growing, or the sadness that my snow peas seem to be dying off prematurely.

Would anyone else like to share their gardening snippits? If there is enough interest I can set up a regularly weekly thread (@[email protected] I presume that will be ok?)

Pic is just for interest - this is the collection of gardening pictures I put together to illustrate my garden design goals for a recent assignment.

    I’ve had two lots of plants bought online delivered in the last two days so have been busy planting and mulching those. Four variaties of citrus (Tahitian lime, Eureka and Meyer Lemon and a Thorny Mandarin) a couple of dragonfruit, plus a white sweet potato, white flowering rosemary, red and green kangaroo paws and a lavender. I’ll now have blue, pink and white flowering rosemary. The citrus are all small (not much more than cuttings) and will hopefully give me some type of citrus on the tree for most of the year.

    My dwarf bean seeds have (finally) sprouted. I also planted some climbing beans and snake bean seeds - I’ve never had snake beans before, but they look interesting.
