Not ginger but we were given some turmeric roots some years ago. We grow them in the garden room in pots and every now and then we do harvest some...
It seems so early for crane flies. I've always associated them with Autumn.
Very boring but needed doing. Washed the ground floor windows and doors. Such a mess and then gave the garden gate a good clean up. The cats (not...
In the polytunnel this morning because of rain....but then we didn't have any! So lifted the bolting lettuces. They have done us proud as we have...
