I love pottering in the garden. Unfortunately I'm always forgetting what I planted and where. This is an attempt to remember what seeds are lurking below the ground and what varieties are growing above.

Unfortunately we did not eat many of our apricots this year. We had about 120ml of rain just a couple of days before they were ready. They all split.

Nashi |
Today we started picking nashi. We picked most of the back tree and some of the nashi for the side tree. It is going to be 40C for the next two day and I didn't want them to burn on the trees. The birds and the harlequin beetles were starting to get into them.

1st Jan 2011
After eight days the beans are up and away. Some protection was needed when a canine friend visiting on Christmas decided she would like to do some digging. These seemed to encourage passing bantams and wild birds to have a go.
Next year I must give more space to the individual plants. To much over lapping means nothing grows well. I do have beans in my grape vine. They are well protected from the sun. I picked the first beans this week but we ate the before I could take a photo.
