It's a big plot isn't it! But looking really good and lots going on.
ReplyDeleteThe thing that struck me most was how under control your grass is! I see you have boards edging the beds - but you also seem to have lawn-like grass in between the beds. Has it been dry with you - the grass looks like summer grass still.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos, and remarkably weed-free! Lovely Autumn sunlight!
ReplyDeleteI love all the flowers sue! And cranberries WOW! We never get fresh cranberries in Australia, always dried or as 'juice'... What sort of growing conditions do they require?
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so tidy. I'm impressed with your peppers, mine are still ripening, won't be long now.
ReplyDeleteYour plot looks fantastic! Absolutely loved the tour. Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the grand tour.
ReplyDeleteoh my good grief. Tis just as well I am sitting here alone as my mouth was hanging open in a not too pretty way (I must have looked like a scared zombie). I am utterly amazed at how FANTASTIC this all looks. Dear me, wait until you see our place *shakes head*. In fact, I don't think I'll let the hubby see this post, he may cry...
ReplyDeleteCongratuations on a brilliant job well done, great harvests, lovely colourful beds and flowers AND sunshine!! xxx
Goodness, that all looks close to immaculate! You should see mine... Or maybe not... Nice job Sue, shows what all your hard work has done.
ReplyDeleteIt is a big plot Alison. No way we would be able to rent it noew with waiting lists but we took it on years ago when no-one really was into allotments.
ReplyDeleteWe only have a couple of boards by our raspberries Linda. This was because the path was new and needed keeping in place. No boards elsewhere as they would get in the way of keeping the grass under control.
The weeds are there matron but maybe not in shot!
Cranberries need an acid soil Phoebe. We used to grow them between the blueberries but being spreading plants were difficult to weed so we have them in tubs now.
Lots of things seems to have been slow to ripen this year don't they Jo?
Glad you enjoyed your visit VG
A pleasure Diana.
Remember everything looks better when it belongs to someone else Carrie.
It really really isn't immaculate Janet - you should see my neighbours plot - now that is immaculate.

ReplyDeleteBut you already have a lovely plot Tanya!
