It feels good to be back on the allotment. The warmer weather has finally returned.
Sally and myself have began the gardening season by planting potatoes, Home Guard and Nadine are the varieties we have decided to try for this season. In the coming weeks we shall be planting peas, broad beans, cabbage, and leeks. Although the soil has improved it will require a lot of hard work to improve its quality. A vast amount of stones have surfaced during the winter, this clearly not helping the soils overall condition.
Irene's rose has made it through the winter months. The buds are appearing, preparing to release their hidden secrets. No doubt revealing an abundance of beautiful colour that will show through the summer months. Namo Amida Bu colin
Great to hear that you've been out in the garden and planting spuds. Here in Narborough we have been walking in an arboretum. Isn't it cheering to be out in the sunshine with members of the sangha? Love from us all here.
