Wow the recent heat has really helped the Crystal apple cucumbers. This one is the size of a tennis ball, fitting for that #Wimbledon2025 vibe! 😂🎾

Nice little haul. More peas & broad beans, cucumbers & some redcurrants.

Evening all. Very windy here today so I’m hoping the dahlias cope. Rain was forecast but nothing yet. Glad it’s the end of the week, need some outside time whatever the weather. Have a lovely evening everyone 😊

Some delicious compote made with the cherries picked earlier in the week. I’ll be using them for desserts when my guests arrive next week.

Morning all. After a rainy night it is starting to brighten up. Some chores & an Italian lesson this morning but hopefully will get outside later. Greenhouse watering is due & a garden check after yesterday’s strong winds. Have a super day everyone 😊

Been a busy day & Ted is pillow improvising

Managed to get some gardening tasks completed before the heavens opened & torrential downpour ensued. Retreated to the greenhouse, so the climbing cucumbers are all nicely tied in. Hope this little dahlia has survived the rain. Not complaining, the garden desperately needed water

Evening all. Busy day today. Really pleased to see the pumpkins starting to climb their new frame. Lots more peas & beans picked too.

Left some of the overwinter celery to bloom & seed. Will collect them for the pantry stores.

Super support for schools.

Filming today so it’s nice to get a quick break. Seems like this ladybirds is hard at work too

Taking a break from filming to get some fresh air. It’s so hot under the lights today. Thought I’d share my Annabelle blooms which are nearly fully open.

Well today was hot. Especially as inside, under filming lights & windows shut to prevent any noise! Thankfully tonight I got some time in the garden. The sun dried out the top grass so managed to get it cut & picked a few of these lovelies.

Kale Cavolo Nero nearly ready to pick.

A nice cosmos. Hot again today but a little breeze which is nice. Pruned the tomato plants - greenhouse & sun bubble & I’m melting! Cooled Ted down using the Mud Daddy as there’s now a hosepipe ban. He’s furious, thinks he’s now had 2 baths in 1 month 😂 keep cool everyone 😊☀️

Gosh didn’t realise it was so late. Time to head in from the garden & make some supper with these lovelies. Maybe a glass of something too & watch the bats. Back to the chores tomorrow.
