Lovely day on the allotment today though the wind is still a bit chilly. The daffodils continue to look good with more to come:
The tiny tulips are also looking quite bright and are just about long enough to cut this time!
I’m happy to say that the mangetouts we planted up last week seem to have survived the mice and I’ve added some more slug doom to them while they are at this vulnerable stage:
I’m a bit worried about the sweet peas next to the shed though, which look very unhappy indeed. I’ve given them a water and am hoping for the best. At least the rhubarb is doing okay:
I have put some sunflower seeds in around the tulip bed as we’re not planning to use that for anything in particular, and the tulips will be over by the time the sunflowers arrive – if they do! We have also planted up our first row of beetroot. As ever, we are using a non-red variety so it doesn’t stain when you handle it. Tastes exactly the same though.
Here is the harvest of daffodils and tulips:
And here they are at home:
Have a good weekend, everyone.
