Week 8

I can’t believe we’ve been working on mtp for eight whole weeks. The time has flown by, but of course we’ve got a lot done. The top beds are starting to take shape now and I spent the last 20 minutes yesterday flattening out the top area ready for our brand new bench when it arrives (up to now we’ve been sitting on Clive’s bench when he’s not looking but shush don’t tell him). I’m also toying with the idea of buying some artichoke plants to put in the middle bed. We love artichokes and the thought of picking our own makes the expense worth while.
Do you like my arty picture?

  1. I saw this company at the Southport Flower show last year and their veg was so impressive! I want to grow giant onions next year and then chop them up in a food processor and freeze them so when I need chopped onions I can just grab a handful!

    I also bought some garlic from them (regular, not Elephant) and it is growing well in pots in the back yard.

    Thanks for the link!

  2. Great to know that you can recommend them. I’ll keep you posted on my artichokes and in what state they arrive by mail order!
