As i keep saying it's my first gardening year...so i've took seom pictures of the progress.
This is when i came home after a windy day to find my tomatoes blown over in the mini greenhouse. it had smashed to bits :(
When my Petunias just started out:
and this is them now:
a new heather i bought from the market. my very first one :D i love them. but it's sitting in my bedroom at the moment as i can't face going out in the wind to put it in the ground.
My Fushias last night...
The last of my tomatoes ripening in a pot on the patio:
My two pumpkins! i wake up every morning to check them and they always surprise me how much bigger they get over night:
I bought this Clematis "Dr Ruppell" from a local garden centre a few months ago and it looked pretty bad. half of it died and had loads of set back and problems but after a bit of tlc it's given me some flowers for the first time:
These gladioli i planted back in the end of may! and they're just starting to flower!
The first batch of mushrooms i pulled off the lawn. i've pulled them up 3 more times and they're still coming up. i've had buckets full of them.
My Passionflower getting used to it's new trellis:
My Passiflora Edulis seedlings in the mini greenhouse. I use wooden skewers as something for them to climb on lol. i germinated these from a fruit from the super market!
My Californian poppies putting on a great show. love 'em!
A view of my tiny garden. well it's my dad's garden. we've lived here for nearly 10 years and totally neglected it. My dad's too scared of doing anything. all he wants is grass! so hopefully when he returns at the end of this month...he may be in for a surprise.
My Passiflora when it just flowered. i sat there and watched it open. it was lovely and had a wonderful bubblegum scent. although the plant suddenly died for no reason a month later!
so yes....this is just some of it....but that's all i've bothered taking pictures off. i've loved my first gardening year. i can't wait for next year!
