Blooming Marvellous....

 Ten days into May and the garden is blooming.  The sun is out today (Sunday) and, despite a chilly wind, it's very pleasant to be outside.  Our succulents have burst forth with blooms; yellow on the left and pink on the right......


... and the Aeonium cutting which I purchased for £1 from a plant sale 2 years ago is loving it too....


Two years on it has babies of it's own...triplets in fact  😀...




My fig tree boasts 2 large figs already and I'm hoping for more later on this summer...


We have tiny strawberries in the trough to the left of the fig and the greenhouse is positively bursting with fledgling plants.  We have managed to find a Passandra cucumber plant as well as a Lumos yellow pepper.  Both performed really well last year and I hope to repeat the success of those.  There is lettuce in a tub so that I can pick leaves as and when I need them and we will be growing tomatoes in the greenhouse too;  Sunbaby (grown from seed very kindly sent to me by a blog buddy) and Crimson Crush which is a larger tomato for slicing on pizza or sandwiches.

To say I am getting excited is an understatement !

How is your garden doing?


Thanks so much for popping in.  Do stay safe and well wherever you happen to be,
