6 March. Other growings.

Two this size!




One mystery fruit




Heaps of ripening peppers


Also...heaps of beans growing, beetroot still doing well. Bok Choy being eaten by caterpillars. Iceberg ok but being swamped by pumpkin. Celery coming along.
Herb garden growing well.



And this... Ok not garden but still pretty. Don't know why it's volcanoesque though.

Herbs Feb 2010

Basil
It's in with the tomatoes but a bit shaded.  Next year I'll aim for it around the edge of the bed.

Sage
Flowered massively and then died right back. I've transplanted it into the new herb area as well as one little self sown seedling

Parsley
I sowed seeds but they had very low germination rate. I got more from self seeded in store punnets.

Thyme
Transplanted to new herb area and taking a while to come back

Mint
Planted about 2 months ago. Starting to take off now but being eaten by caterpillars and white fly.  Damn pests.

Other
I've got:
Lemon Grass
Oregano
Chives (from punnet as seeds failed to germinate)
