I have done my Potty Planting!

Spent all day planting yesterday, boy was I tired last night! Keith my fella had got my dinner nearly ready by the time I got home last night and said lets go for a drink to relax you first (he really wanted a drink if the truth is known) so we walked down to our local bar but with great difficulty on my behalf I just could not straighten up! Now I know what it must feel like to be old and a hunch back!

My planted veggie plot at La Maison des Fleurs - www.farmhousegites.com
When you look at the above pic it really doesn't look like I've done much but if you look closely, each stick represents the rows I have planted, theres a lot really honestly! Anyway, I have planted loads of early potatoes, Anais, and a main crop Desiree, lots of ordinary onions (sturon), shallots (Jermor) and lots of red onions, I love these, the ground although dug up and manured a week or so ago, was so hard due to no rain for a while I had to really dig it all again - no wonder I felt knackered!

Now all I have toMy Keithys favourite flowers Nasturtiums do is wait for them to come up! I have kept a few of each type to plant here in my garden in Josselin so I can actually 'watch' them grow as I find it exciting!

I need to next time I go over, probably next week now, sow my carrots, parsnips and some other stuff, green beans I think might be a possibility but not sure what else as yet.



More land at my place, La Maison des Fleurs for perhaps more veggies?
My Keithys favourite flowers Nasturtiums Whilst waiting for me to finish planting, my friend Karen who has been helping me continued digging ready for sowing next week, she was so proud of her efforts, but I reminded her to look to her right (see pic above) to show her that she has barely started she has all that still to dig up!!!! don't think she will be coming again LOL Sorry Karen only joking!

N.B. I have added a couple of 'Nasturtium' pics (Keithy's favourite) to brighten up the otherwise dull pictures of my planting!
