Soledad's Journal

I have been mostly growing (new) things in pots; my garden had well-established bushes of different sorts and heights along the borders when I moved in and I thought it prudent to see what they were like for at least a year before I started digging things up. I have had reasonable success with my strawberries, and my tomatoes are doing wonderfully with lots of fruit. My attempt at radishes, ended up with greenery and flowers, and very little root and my lettuce keeps getting eaten by the slugs. I do have two beautiful mini sun flowers in a pot though, which make me smile each time I go out in the garden to get my bike to cycle off to work.
