What We Managed To Grow in 2015
A look back at what we managed to grow this year.
Successes:
Garlic, courgettes, cucumbers, carrots, lettuce, redcurrants, calendula, nigela, sunflowers, rhubarb, candytuft.
Failures:
Radishes, Echinacea (didn't even appear), fennel, tomatoes (needed more love and attention).
 |
Haphazard but colourful bunch of flowers!
|
 |
Garlic - very easy and SO much better than supermarket garlic |
 |
Loads of courgettes - so many we ended up juicing them every day for months |
 |
More courgettes - the yellow ones are a Friulan variety with very delicate flavour |
 |
Carrots, courgettes, lettuce, radishes |
 |
Genovese courgettes |
 |
Radishes. A bit too woody, probably should pick them earlier |
 |
Loads of delicious rhubarb |
 |
Fennel - bit of a failure. They bolted and were planted too close together |
 |
Lavender bush was thriving this year and redcurrants were in abundance |
 |
LOADS of lettuce, really tasty and no slugs amazingly |
 |
Rosemary, sage and oregano going strong |
 |
Grew carrots for the first time. Very easy and totally delicious |
 |
Chillies, tomatoes and sunflowers |
 |
Very young lettuce from thinning out. |
 |
Redcurrants |
 |
Forgot I planted this, abandoned allotment for a month and this beast was there! |
| | |
Loads of plums from our tree but keep getting caterpillars in them. Yuck. |
 |
Did some weeding whilst baby carrying. Success! |
 |
Getting sleepy on my back! |
 |
Loved eating flowers. Only going to plant edible ones this year! |
 |
These R&R merino jumpers are far too nice for the garden. Won't do that again! |
 |
Our twins being cute and picking flowers whilst we weed. |
