Welcome new readers!
Welcome to my first blog post! After some welcome rain in London and after a week away in Dorset I went up to the lottie and picked a large handful of sweet peas, zinnias amni visagna and cosmos. All grown from seed by me in my greenhouse at home.
In fact I came home with a bootful of goodies! A basket full of courgettes and cucumbers, too many beans and beginnings of my heritage tomatoes. Not to forget my autumn raspberries. I’ve picked over 16 pounds so far. I love this time of year!
