And there was me thinking that the raised bed would provide enough drainage? Have got some sand on the driveway leftover from "The Wall" building and one of today's tasks for Management is to help me move it to the veg patch.Bag End Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190496929132717769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862210932296767630.post-89548566397202524442015-05-24T23:47:35.626+01:002015-05-24T23:47:35.626+01:00Thank you, Tony, you are most kind. :-)Thank you, Tony, you are most kind. :-)Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18191107549698019812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862210932296767630.post-50286043995587280922015-05-24T23:46:45.167+01:002015-05-24T23:46:45.167+01:00Patience, m'dear!

Mind you, if you saw Countryfile this evening, you would have seen asparagus being growing in the northwest (in Fylde, I think) in sand - are your crowns sulking with soil that is too rich/heavy, I wonder?Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18191107549698019812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862210932296767630.post-52243224348507237682015-05-24T23:44:03.737+01:002015-05-24T23:44:03.737+01:00My friend has kindly given me some of his spare to...My friend has kindly given me some of his spare tomato plants - of course 5 out of six of mine popped their little germinating heads out the compost the very next day - FOUR WEEKS after sowing!Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18191107549698019812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862210932296767630.post-2184967739639961132015-05-16T10:55:04.910+01:002015-05-16T10:55:04.910+01:00Glad you're back have missed your updatesGlad you're back have missed your updatesThe Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15668436781673883357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862210932296767630.post-79196621335997875752015-05-14T07:09:39.455+01:002015-05-14T07:09:39.455+01:00Am very impressed that Domino is sitting NEXT to y...Am very impressed that Domino is sitting NEXT to your pots and not on top of them . . .<br /><br />Congrats on the asparagus. I have one solitary spear visible at present . . . am muttering darkly about the likelihood of it all being dug up if my second attempt at growing this gorgeous veg fails :-( Telling myself that "it's still early" but I'm not sure I believe it.Bag End Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06190496929132717769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7862210932296767630.post-51014407044904291182015-05-12T22:32:50.053+01:002015-05-12T22:32:50.053+01:00Glad to see you back in the garden and blogland. ...Glad to see you back in the garden and blogland. Hope you had a good holiday and are ready and raring to go for summer. Sounds like things are coming along at the plot, although a shame about the tomatoes. I do love rhubarb and strawberries and will definitely be planting them in my new garden. Have a great week and take care.Susan Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11945482062858126629noreply@blogger.com
