First Saturday of July and things have sprung up again. Loads of peas and mange tout to pick and share around. We really did crack on with the weeding especially in the fruit cage which is looking fab again.
We also planted some carrots in tubs and some dwarf beans outside. The parsnips got thinned out and as we were doing so we were sniffing the roots! They had such a strong parsnip smell that it reminded me of Christmas!
It was great to see all the berry plants fruiting nicely. Our first red raspberry was spotted today and well as what looks like a bumper crop of blackberries growing!
All spotted a fantastic looking caterpillar which we think is a Knot Grass Moth. Check it out in the picture gallery and tell us if we are correct!
