The rain cometh!!



The rain is certainly not the best thing for an enjoyable summer but certainly brings on the plants. The top picture is a flower of purple podded pea, they are just coming into flower now and hopefully will crop well and taste even better.

The middle picture shows the globe artichokes growing on our new plot. They are a perenial and thus we get to crop them each year.

Lastly the onion bed is looking the worse for wear weed wise and will need some serious clearing out to prevent problems. Onions do not do well if smothered by competition.
