Re: Garden Update 2013
I believe gardening is a journey.....from ground preparation to bloom and all the effort and care that goes in. In my opinion it would be unjust to merely share the blooms/the climax....instead we should cherish and share the process of reaching the end result may it be failure.....on internet we can find almost any plant in its final glory but the journey to that stage is missing.......i urge members to share their journey, for we learn through the process and that's what this forum is all about.
This winter has been different than last one. Harsh but brief. Assessing that i might not see frost again i have removed the frost protection and garden is getting ready for spring.

Re: Garden Update 2013
Nasturtium Milkmaid

Broccoli is perhaps the second last vegetable that i am going to harvest as i have replaced almost all Veg beds with Flowers. Similar in taste to cauliflower, Broccoli makes multiple flower heads. Center one being the largest.

Re: Garden Update 2013
Nusturtium are looking good but they do not appear to be milkmaid as milkmaid does not have a red throat nor it is so dark yellow. I will try peaches and creams next year hopefully.
