Spring continues, it seems such a gallop into May, everything is growing, including the weeds. I have lots of little plants to pull out of the greenhouse and into the veg beds, what a whirl of activity. Its starting to get hard to choose now, but here are some lovely colours and some edibles for the new month. Here is #SixOnSaturday.

It is wild garlic time around here. This year I’m trying a new recipe to ferment wild garlic as a spicy healthy condiment. 2 kg went into a pair of 600 ml pots with 2% salt….and we shall see how it does after a week or two. Here is some of it before it got harvested.

Some lovely wild violet have popped up in the lawn this year, many more than usual, making a wonderful purple carpet amidst our untidy moss-n-grass lawn.

A white favourite of mine to end the narcissus season. I have tried pheasant eye all over the garden, but it comes back year after year in just one shady spot, soon to be covered by hosts leaves. Dry shade must be it’s favourite summer habitat.

Some of my blueberry bushes look a little tired, but others are now bursting with tiny perfect flowers, giving us lots of promise for July and August.

We are a good few weeks behind most of the Uk for this one……bluebells have just started to flower. Sadly, my garden does not host the native type. Instead I have a garden full of Spanish bluebells. Not so delicate but bursting with wonderful blue colour that we rarely see at other times of year.

And finally, here we go with the apple orchard. It’s apple blossom time. I always love this time of year.
