Isla making rabbit food. Liam making a worm farm.
My first Iris to flower, in memory of my grandma Iris who passed away this year.
We are looking forward to those broadbeans on the way, the kids love them. And they love searching out ripe guavas!
Finally got my garlic into the ground.
Mum came to stay last week and was a great help in the garden (thanks mum). We have now added another blueberry, a grapefruit, a nashi pear, two grapes, a bay tree, some pretty ornamental plants, sweet peas - and a bird feeder :) to the garden.
Some small heads of brocolli are emerging from my jungle of self-seeded plants :)
Lots of planning happening. Lots of time spent searching through seed catalogues trying to make decisions! My next task is to try and decide what tomatoes I want to plant, there are so many amazing varieties to choose from. Anyone have some favourites they can recommend?

Aunty Bry knows a good one-great for pulping and drying and disease resistant and grows easily from laterals too. You'll have to email her as my memory fails me as to the name. My, your garden looks better than when I saw it last!! Spring must be on it's way!
I'm so sorry about your grandma!
I love seeing what's in your garden.
Always love your posts Hannah! We were just talking this morning about chitting some potatoes and sorting seed ready for the glass house. I really need to get in there with some warm soapy water....only the mammoth spiders are making me just a little reluctant!
Beautiful photos - can almost smell each unique plant they are so good. Love the bird feeder. Your garden is getting so full of interesting food. Love GG
last year we grew a heirloom tomato called black russian i think, it was delcious and a cool colour too x
