September already

Our last two Monday session were rained off, but eventually we managed to find a dry(ish) evening later in the week when we could catch up in the garden. The main job was cutting the grass edges and then general tidying.

The rain has encouraged our annual rocket seeds to germinate - in abundance!

Rocket seeds germinate quickly in the right conditions.

We also have some wild rocket in the garden. It is a perennial which we don't remember planting, but it is a tasty addition to salads, and very hardy.

The Broad Ripple Yellow Currant tomatoes, which come up every year with no help at all from us, are ripening now. Tiny, but very tasty.

These plants will go on producing little tomatoes until the frost comes.
