EJ Asked....................7 pics

[Doris_Pinks]

to see piccies of what I am growing! Not very exciting!   (Am presuming you meant the plot!)  So here is a guided tour
As you look at my plot, these are my pumpkins through carpet on top right of site.


Looking from top of pumpkins across to the left, kestrel potatoes in the foreground, and rusty garlic and leeks in farthest bed.



2 beds behind the garlic, Early pots, which are being dug now, and squash bed behind. (Still got more wonky frames to put up!)



Coming down the hill in front of the Kestrels my courgettes, regulars, yellow and rounds, more squash growing up frame on right, and sweet peas if they ever grow!



Beds behind, sweetcorn, and right bed, cabbages, under the net!, lettuces, and climbing mange touts



Looking down is my mixed bag! Has a little of everything thrown in, parsnips, peas, beets, celery etc!


And finally, (horrah you are thinking!) My broad beans, onions, swede, under fleece, carrots, and brussels under netting. Then right in front of the plot is my runner bean row, with strawberries planted on one side and more squash n runners!



So there you go EJ, you asked me to take my camera and I remembered! ;D  DP

Not EJ,  Doris P but enjoyed viewing your plot.  You have done so well with it especially because of it's incline, which must have been tricky to start with.  Everything looks great. :) busy_lizzie

[Doris_Pinks]

Thanks BL, think I have the hang of this hillside gardening now! (Mind you one leg is now shorter than the other ;))

EJ, thats the marvellous thing about landscape pics, you can't see the slugholes, aphids etc. close up! ;D

[Mothy]

Wow, what a productive looking patch DP!!

I love to see pics of other peeps' plots to keep my enthusiasm levels up.

Thank you  ;D

[Doris_Pinks]

fb yours is steeper than mine??? wanna see!

Tim, there are actual paths, hidden by the camera, and the mange touts are Carouby de Maussane, mine are 5 ft already and the peas have a great flavour, and look pretty too, will try and take a pic tomorrow. (have them in the garden too growing up my obelisk)

Mothy thanks, it keeps us 4 fed!

Wow :o you have a busy looking piece of land there DP ;D love the raised beds, ;) it’s interesting to see how others build their own contraptions for raising crops too. 8)

Like it very much thanks for showing us. ;D

[Gardengirl]

WOW DP  I'm totally in awe :)  What an amazing plot you have there.  Sure makes my small rhubarb patch, runner been wigwam and three tomato plants in pots look a bit inadequate :-[ ;) :)

[Piglottie]

Great pics DP.  Gives hope to a newbie like me who is currently constructing number one raised bed.  Will get there in the end.....
