Garden Pics

(1) Potato patch:

(2) Planter boxes: the tall plants in the background are snowpeas (L) and broad beans (R). In the foreground are parsnips, swedes, spinach, rocket and a bunch of other things I can't remember..


(3) In the rockery at the back there is a lime tree. In the foreground is the recently-completed stormwater drain in front of the retaining wall. The two lengths of drain are joined under the cement by 90mm plastic pipe, and at the far end another pipe joins up to the pit at the back corner of the house. It seems to be doing its job so far based on a couple of recent downpours -- but only time, and a few really decent inundations, will tell.
