I like how you have edged your paths with lavender..and plenty of other flowers for insects too :icon_cheers:
Good to see there is room for the wild life and not all is grown just for 'us'.
Very nice plot :icon_cheers:

That's not an allotment, it's an estate!! Wonderful, Kipper- all credit to your hard work!

Lovely! And how you keep all that weeded so well is a mystery. Could it be many hours of hard work? You are an inspiration.

Oh wow, thank you so much.  I am very critical of my own allotments as I tend to look at what needs to be done and not what I've actually done, so I didn't expect to get such lovely comments.  I just thought it would be nice to share a few photos, but you have made my day.

What an inspiration Kipper :icon_cheers:, its beautiful :toothy10:

Just check your Bluebells tho hun, they look like Spanish to me, it might be the angle the pic is at. I only say this as I was sold English bells a few years ago and they turned out to be Spanish....it took ages to get rid of them.

Your lovely plot puts my wee garden to shame......well done you  :icon_cheers: :sunny: :toothy10:
I was born with nothing and have most of it left.

OMG (as my teenage girls would say) you are so right about my bluebells and I tried so hard to make sure they were the english ones.  I ordered them from J Parkers and I have just rang them as I am so angry about it.  They asked me to email some pictures into them, which I will do and they said they will contact their supplier.  I won't let this drop as there must be thousands of people that don't realise they have been sold them.

I really thought J Parkers were a reputable company to buy from, I wouldn't have been so supprised if I had bought them from Ebay etc

Brilliant, well done, love it.  Makes me feel a bit ashamed of mine, but will just call mine a nature reserve, lots of long grass. Wish it would stop raining.  :BangHead:
