squashes and beans

Planted out the courgettes and cucumber in the bricked-in beds at the top of the plot. No support at the moment; must add some cane later for them to clamber up.

Lola and Neve help plant the courgettes Planted out the beans: two rows of the Italian bean (Fiocco) and two rows of the French (Blue Lake).

Back in the greenhouse, I repotted several of the San Marzono and Inco tomatoes. Left some of them in the trays, as they were a bit small and, anyway, I have plenty.

Also planted the clematis down by the fence by Anabel’s house.

allotted

Woohoo! We have an allotment. Or very nearly. We take over a half-plot on October 01. We have a key and have signed the paperwork.

It’s a good-looking plot with a small potting shed and a little lock-up. And if you could jump high enough, you’d be able to see into our garden from it.

So, more digging ahoy. Though it shouldn’t be too bad: it’s weedy, but it’s been worked this year.
