Large gardens are definitely hard work. Constant grass cutting, weeding, edging, hedges. The list goes on

But so so worth it. The borders are colouring up now. The alliums are a first for me. Very pretty with their cornflower neighbours.

The veg patch is looking good. Peas, french beans, beetroot, carrots, potatoes and this year it’s Romanesque and Purple Sprouting Broccoli. Fingers crossed.
