So this Victoria Rhubarb may be a little pot bound...

The offloading of cucumbers has started. Three plants is just too many so my friends are bearing the brunt.

My first Golden Sunrise tomatoes

It'll soon be time to harvest all those pots at @NTCalkeAbbey Good crop this year.

I probably shouldn't get so excited, but how fantastic is this walk-in cold frame at Calke Abbey!

Just found a frog has taken up residence in my greenhouse.

I've chopped all my African Marigolds down, since they were stating to go to seed, so the kitchen is brighter today

So it turns out the large frog I found in my greenhouse is in there with a much smaller frog too!

After some serious deliberations I've finally placed my order for a traditional Victorian-style greenhouse.

First cucumber plants out of the propagator this season after just over a week

After an afternoon of digging the garden is looking worse rather than better.

The Telegraph Improved cucumbers and Golden Sunrise tomatoes after 2 1/2 weeks

Another morning of digging. More mess in the garden.

Varnishing up the planters for the new season

First planter after a couple of coats of Sadolin - really pleased with the result!

Growing trees from seed is very satisfying, but you've certainly got to be patient. Sugar Maple, Japanese Black Pine and Cedar of Lebanon

Planted just over a week ago after a spot of #RHSChatsworth shopping. The first Nardo Oriental Trumpet has appeared from The Hydes

Finally catching up with #gardnersworld Monty being talked over each time he started talking was rather frustrating.

The first Nardo Oriental Trumpet has flowered! from The Hydes
