Just checked and my Parsnips are coming through, likewise hadn't got a new packet, but mine were only last years. Beetroot, late sown, is up too.
Just had salad lunch at home with a few new potatoes, from a seed potato that mum had taken pity of and had planted it under the staging in the greenhouse. It was one left in a tray after I had planted up the garden here..not sure of variety...
Just 5 Shirley tomatoes in the greenhouse this year.
Pigeons had an attack of both Radeo and Early Onward peas...had to net along both sides of the row. Also a bit short of sticks for the tall Radeo row.
Bunyards broad beans had second string put around yesterday, in full flower, cut one stem off as it was covered in blackfly.
First sown runner beans just starting to show signs of climbing, second sowing just popping through, climbing french beans at one wigwam likewise.
Lady Christl potatoes not far off for digging but a bit uneven down the row.
Kestrel and Sarpo Mira look more even although got a few bits of tops blown about in the gale of last week. Late planted Maris Peer looking nice and even.
Raspberry canes not looking as good as last year but loganberries covering the full frame really well and are a mass of flower.
Stewed Invicta Gooseberries followed the salad today..
