The last of the carrots came out today and the final spring onions so I dug the bed over. It's been a productive day at the allotment and a beautiful sunny one as well. If only this sun had come out before I ripped the final tomatoes up then I might just have been able to save a few more that hadn't been affected by blight.
It feels like new beginnings all over again. Other than the potatoes and squashes I have nothing growing.
Today I did plant a fig tree that Scott picked up for me in the week and have some blueberries ready for planting when I pick up some ericaceous compost. They will all be espaliered across the bed by the potting shed.
More excitement for today, Cathy too a break from her study Cathy popped down to plant some mixed bulbs in the flower bed. Hopefully we will see some alliums in the mix. I also planted some bluebells in one of the pathways. We await springtime for the results.
