Growing Pains

The main challenge we are having with the garden at the moment is how big everything is getting.

Inhospitable weather

The wildflowers have almost all capsized under the weight of all the rain of the last week.

The potatoes are only just still standing after the rain and the gale force winds. I only recently read that Maris Piper should be avoided for windy areas due to their height so… Good to know.

Like sardines in a tin

The tomato plants are now pressing up against every limit of the greenhouses to the point where I’m not convinced I’ll be able to stop them falling over.

I had such low expectations I honestly didn’t expect to have problems with too much growth.
