Vegetable Allotment Plot

My journal of allotmenting…

Week 21 – Year 2 (flaming & flower)

29th June – 3rd July 2009

We had a heat touch in England, ‘flaming’ June at least lived up the name given… all my fans been taken out from the loft and have a good turn on….

The heat gives out the best colour on all the flower plants and here are some I caught their best poise….

  1. Very nice effort, Virginia. I like your photos.

    I think it was Mike who told me your web site. I hope he sees this. I have resisted the temptation to steal his apples!!!

    I’m sure I know the ones – they are abundant.

    I hope to see you on the site soon. I go there maybe once or twice a week.

    btw, we went to the Henbury Flower Show last weekend, but did not see Pauline’s entries. Did you go? You should have an entry! I ought to put one of my loaves in for a prize!

    See you soon,

    Tim

    • Thank you very much for your lovely comments, computing is next I like beside allotmenting. This fast growing technology is hard to catch and I am trying to pace up as best I can but planting is another area… easy to achieve the goal as what I sow is what I get… I didn’t go to the Flower Show but organised my daughter’s birthday party instead…Never mind there must another Flower Show at the Westbury village… The recent rain did brillient to the courgettes, I popped down today and got myself some giant courgettes and giant beetroots…. See you..
