One annoying thing about living in London is that there aren't many flats to rent with a garden; or at least a garden you can actually garden in. I am one of those many unlucky ones. However recently I began to read about patio gardening and realised that I didn't need that much space in which to grow a few choice plants and produce.
To date I have the following, at various stages of growth:
*Herb trough with mature fennel fronds, mint, flat leaf parsley and mint; a pot with mature mint (though it needs rescuing, seems dormant and deteriorating); parsley pot (grown from seed - one has just sprouted its very first (very miniscule) parsley leaf!; tomatoes (from seed - no visible germination as of yet); pot of red peppers (also from seed, also no visible germination yet - mostly Chris's domain); salad leaf (from seed, currently sprouting first true leaves); strawberry plants (cheated and bought young plants - currently sprouting...something or other. Look promising...I think).
I will post photos after dinner. Who knee being an adult was so frigging stressful. I have hardly relaxed (except napping) since work, and I was up at 4.30am this morning.
