Stormclouds and cauliflower

Great excitement at the garden today. There were lots of yurters around, dodging the heavy downpours.  They enjoyed looking round the garden, taking photos and asked lots of questions. They couldn`t believe the garden was only created last year. When the rain got too heavy they dashed off in their wellies and we retired to the greenhouse to tie tomatoes.
Andy came with the old shed. Who knows what that will become!
I split the bellis daisy plantlets and spaced them out a bit, in rows around the garden, They will be for spring bedding. I did the same with more home-saved seedlings of forgetmenots from home.
We uncovered the newest row of climbing French beans and Steve put in pyramids of hazel. The ground was great for weeding and planting. Lots of dock seedlings to get rid of.
We harvested quite a bit....a huge cauliflower, courgettes, broad beans, a handful of sage to dry and a bundle of strawberry plantlets to pot up.

A delicate poppy in the butterfly garden. Still no sign of any butterflies.

Thanks to Belinda, I now know the unknown flower. It is called phacelia.
