New Plants.....

O.K... After some disappointing losses last week due to the frost I armed myself with some new seedlings, picked myself up off the floor and decided to give it another go..... In the spot where the climbing beans were originally planted I've now planted long green burpless cucumber......I've put an empty 2 litre juice bottle cut in half over the top of each of the plants to help protect them from frost while they are still young....

My local hardware store was all out of climbing beans (I'll plant some seeds this week) so instead I bought some dwarf french beans and have planted them in amongst some cauliflower as suggested here..... I've also put containers over the beans to protect against frost....

While I was at the hardware store I was lucky enough to score a punnet of sick viking spinach,cauliflower, and mixed green lettuce, all for 50cents each..... Gotta love a bargain!!!!The plants don't look too bad... Fingers crossed that with a little TLC they'll come good and produce more than I paid for them... :)

With the days now warming up my snow peas

and peas are now in flower......

It's just starting to come over cloudy... Here's hoping the heavens open tonight and we get a drop of rain....

Take Care :)
