Ta Girls :)

Got Blackcurrants, Gooseberries, Strawberries and an Apple @Becky, just moved the Grapevine to the main plot.

It survived being neglected in a bucket for a couple of years, don't even think I watered it last year while I was mad. Gets a bit boggy here so I've planted it on a bit of a mound for drainage.

I do like roast parsnips @Beth_B Just haven't got an oven anymore :cry:

Cor that's a lovely mix! (y) I hope your grapevine does well - who knows, before long you may have your own vineyard ;)

This will keep you on your toes for a while, and I also hope your grapevine does well in its new home!

What a beautiful evening! Nice to see how everything is coming along. I'm pleased to see your Rum & Coke plant is doing well :D

That's great. My aunt had a greenhouse/garden too, and it was really messy during the rainy seasons here. It's just wind, storm, and more rain for a few straight months, and nobody would really want to go outside the pouring rain to just clean up the flown away leaves and bumped potted plants, so it stays like that until the sun shines, which doesn't usually happen until at the end of September or so. It's not great, but when the plants are in full bloom, it is all worth it.

Yep, it's good to have one for when it's not so nice outside :)

Grapevine is bursting into leaf :)

Thanks Zigs. It felt like a personal tour of your garden. Love the birds tweeting and could almost feel the Spring warmth.

You can feel the warmth and hear the birds on this one too :D
