I'll have lots of it in the ground soon enough, plus tomatoes, lettuce, and peppers. The 1st one is oregano, a new (to me) variety called bold and spicy. I haven't tried it yet.

Not my garden, but the cherry trees near my office are in bloom!

Tomato plants all pulled out and in green bin. Still picking the odd raspberry. 100gms more I will do jam.
Fog this morning so airport closed.
Everything pretty much shut down.

We are steadily working our way through the long lawns and weeds, taking time though. Bought some seeds, bee and butterfly loving plants, they are so tiny..

I bought a new purple basil plant and two sacks of peaty soil.
Filled up some pots and sowed:
Filled up some pots and sowed:

- Fenugreek for fenugreek leaves (kashuri metha)
- Scotch bonnets
- Thai chiles
- Local green chiles
- Mixed lettuce leaves
- Tomatillos
- Some beans I found in Mexico which are called "cowboy beans" but which just have to be grown because they're amazing. (I'm going to take some photos right now)

I harvested another 2 butternut squash yesterday along with a big tub of purple potatoes. The potatoes are another crop that's had a very good year. I'm guessing that there's 15kg or so here. I dug up 7½kg or so a few weeks ago.
Most of the pears and all of the apples still need to be harvested, but I'll leave them on the trees as long as possible. The above are all windfall.
And I spotted more raspberries!
