| Milne Veggie Patch 2nd May 2012 |
 |
| Oscar's bed everything was grown from seed - pumpkins and mustard leaves and something else which I am still unsure of. |
 |
| Grape vine and arugula. |
 |
| Mint |
 |
| Artichoke, melon, aubergine (eggplant) and tomato. Don't be fooled by the small size of baby artichoke plants as they grow to be the size of a bush! |
 |
| Herb garden - oregano, sweet basil, coriander (cilantro), dill, sage, thyme and chives. The coriander grows like a weed and is incredibly tasty. |
 |
| Mia's pot - The water melon was grown from seed and is still not looking that healthy. None of the corn she planted has grown. |
 |
| Various peppers (bell and chilli) and a courgette (zuccini) plant that looks like it might take over. |
 |
| Five tomato plants - I would probably grow three on here next year as I think five will become too crowded. I have hung a bird feeder on the top of the structure to encourage the birds to eat the bugs. A nice 'Eco' bug solution from Ann Ellis. |
 |
| Louis planter - with various chilli peppers. They have really started to take off, now that we have slowed down on the watering! |
 |
| Tomato plant plus flowering sweet peas (grown from seed, only 4 out of 20 have grown, it is rather disapointing. I think I need to pre-soak and maybe sandpaper them a bit?) |
 |
| Over Watering! I am hoping that the pumpkin and maybe one of the beans will make it... |
 |
| Hanging tomatoes - Richard is loving these. I have set up some irrigation for them - lets see what happens. |
 |
| Strawberries. |
 |
| Within the courgette (zuccini) jungle, you can see our first courgette at the end of the flower. |
 |
| Cheery tomatoes - this plant has lots of bunches already. |
 |
Out of focus pepper flower bud.   |
