Harvest Time


 More to do today. My chamomile beds were a fail this year, but I've found some that have self seeded elswhere in the garden. Yippee.

  1. My sweetpeas failed this year, but when we were at a Fete in Iridgehay on Sunday, the plant stall was selling big pots of them for a tenner, so I succumbed and bought one and I've got 2 lovely vases full in the house and more to come. Xx

    1. Thank you Jules. I have masses of it now, all grown from teeny tiny plants.

  4. Must be the season for lavender...this is the third post I've read in the past 2 days of people harvesting their lavender. Each and every year I plant 3 or 4 plants and enjoy them but they are an annual here in Nod...only once have I had a plant make it through the winter and reappear the following year. But that was it for that hardy soul as well.
