Garden update - June ’10
Thing are going well with our Edible Garden. The sun is producing a plethora of fine green plants along with small hints of vibrant colour. Tonight we tried the Borage for the first time. It’s such a beautiful flower, almost like a simplified Passion Flower; taste wise the flowers it taste like mild cucumber.It is an exciting time in the garden the bees and other insects are busy and our hard work slowly beginning to pay off.
For a change not many words, I’ll let the photos speak for themselves.
Peas beginning to take over the onions
Peas - I don’t know why but I love how pea plants can beautifully twist around everything & anything they can find.
Beetroot. Our Golden Beetroots are not doing as well as the red beets.

Absolutely gorgeous! I love climbing peas as well, very neat how they twist and turn.
my borage isn’t flowering yet in the NW! It’s close though - loved your beautiful photograph of the lovely blue flowers
Absolutely beautiful photos! Looking very juicy and gorgeous!
All looking fabulous, some great eating ahead! We are overrun with lettuce at the moment, but enough variety to keep salad leaves interesting. Beautiful shots, what camera are you using?
I use a Canon EOS 400D.
I love the Borage! I can’t wait to see what you are going to do with them!
Gorgeous pictures by the way!
ooo it is all looking rather good!!
