Up early , to work in the garden while it is still nice and cool .
It was hot yesterday and looks to be another warm day today . Look how fast the grass is growing now up in the meadow !
I was admiring the Giant Echiums . Usually they are biannual but these have waited a third year to bloom . I leave the old flowered stems to go to seed and then pull up the seedlings to replant where I want them , except they usually pop up and grow best where they choose to be rather than where I'd like them to be .....anyway , I can't see any just yet .
There was a Woodpecker feasting on insects that it must be finding on these old dead Echium stems .
Then flew off .
Back to work , I brought the Courgettes and Butternuts out to begin acclimatising them . I'll put them back in tonight and repeat this for a few more days before planting them out .
I think I might actually wait a couple more weeks before planting them out . Let them get stronger .
I potted up another nine Tomato plants . These are Tomato "Roma" a nice plum shaped one .
Tomato "Roma" under the greenhouse bench .
Tomato "Alicante" and Tomato" Supersweet 100 F1" are beginning to grow up through the greenhouse bench and I am fixing up string for the vines to twine around .
