I took pictures of my potatoes but forgot to post them. Mine are absolutely huge now. I hope that means a lot of little potatoes are forming under there. Your raspberries look like they have a great start and so do those tomatoes. becky3086https://www.blogger.com/profile/01026872543168452124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-23940861228749400312014-04-16T17:54:02.958+01:002014-04-16T17:54:02.958+01:00Its all looking great.

I've got a bit of lily of the valley in my garden, I wish it would spread a bit as it's such a lovely plant, perhaps it isn't so happy where I've got it.

I almost didn't plant my garlic chives because they self seed too much. But I told myself I would cut out all the flower stalks every year. So far so good. But all I need is one year of not doing it and I'll have multiple years of weeding. Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.com
