Hi,
We're trying something new this year. Radishes, cabbage, celery. Regarding tomatoes, we're trying four different varieties. Also, trying several difference herbs too.

Asparagus would be terrific...still not patient enough to wait years for those. :icon_smile:

Grace want's to grow mushrooms...so I've asked her to take the lead on figuring that out.

Regards,
Chuck

Thankyou for the offer!Yes it is a shame we're not living closer lol!!! The nursery ones I have seen are selling for £1.99 per plant so I guess thats not too bad is it?All their other herbs are the same price so might pick up a few different ones.I love this time of the year! :cheers:

We added two blueberry plants and about 24 late season strawberry plants. Grace added garlic cloves among the strawberries...supposedly an organic bug "keeper awayer".

Regards,
Chuck
