Usually I am a dab hand with plants but this year they just haven't had enough sun; I don't have a garden but my yard is full of large planters.
This year I put in the usual suspects, petunias,ageratum,trailing lobelia,begonia and nicotiana. Also some geraniums that had over wintered and made a reappearance.
The petunias usually do really well but haven't been nearly as productive as last year, but having said that they are usually past it by now but are still looking healthy.
More flowers on the clematis than ever and the same for the jasmine that is climbing over the yard door.
Kelsey had an onion entered in a competition up at the Peel Park, judging day was last sunday, we didn't come last and for a first attempt our 4.6 ounces wasn't bad , sadly the monster that won was some 2lb 12oz !!!
We are trying again next year so all tips on onion growing gratefully received !
