FRUIT AND VEG IN THE GARDEN
We are trying to grow a bit of fruit and veg in the garden, we have a greenhouse where we grow a dark blue grape, tomato’s, courgettes, some herbs, cucumber and strawberries.
Outside we have a vegetable garden on leggs so that it is easy to remove weeds and thin seedlings.
AS WE CAN ONLY START PLANTING IN THE GREENHOUSE AFTER THE FROSTS, ABOUT MID MAY, THE TOMATO’S ARE ONLY HAVING FLOWERS AT THE MOMENT
THE COURGETTES ARE REALLY DOING WELL
OUR VEGGIE GARDEN ON LEGGS WITH SALAD, STRAWBERRIES, ONIONS, CELERY AND FENNEL, CARROTS…..
THE SMALL TWIGS YOU SEE AND THE RIBBONS AND STUFF IS TO KEEP THE BIRDS OUT, THAT WORKS WELL BUTÂ I WISH I COULD DO SOMETHING AGAINST THE SLUGS !!!!
And ofcourse my pride and joy ; my fig tree !
Have a great day all !!
PICTURES OF MY GARDEN
We are having a heathwave ! We go from cold to hot in one day, we can’t cope with it nor can the plants.

YELLOW
Yellow is one of my favorite colours so I like to use it in my house and in the garden. A bunch of yellow flowers give the room a sunny look even on a rainy day.
IRIS PSEUDACORUS (marsh iris), LIVES IN THE MARSH PART OF OUR POND AND FILTERS THE WATER

HELP
Here at Gerda’s Equine Rescue, we love all animals, but Peach holds a special place in my heart. At first, the empty eye socket on her right side would make me feel uncomfortable but the more I get to know her the less I even notice that small, superficial detail about this incredible horse.
