I am so enjoying my back garden and the velocity of growth I see every day! It is amazing how everything is springing to action and the veggies are actually looking like something you can eat!! A huge growth from 5 days ago! The herbs are creeping over the patchwork patio and everyday I can pick mint for my lemon tea and thyme for my midday meal. The peaches are causing havoc on the small peach tree and the quince tree is happy to show off her new fruit! My grass patch is amazingly green and soft like a velvet carpet and my hubby and I fall onto it after a hard days work!

[one_half_last]Bees still abound in the borage flowers[/one_half_last]
The raised beds are growing nicely – potatoes, beetroot, cabbage, parsley and spinach are looking good. The tomatoes are sadly taking their time and the broccolli will be a while still.

Look at this stunning potager garden full of goodies. I love it. We are headed to very cold weather and my borage is still blooming for the pollinators.
Wow, how creative! Your garden is so organized! I love the checkerboard pattern!
Thank you so much – alot of planning went into it, so now I can say it is a pleasure. 🙂
