I sowed more lettuce (Blonde Maraicheri) and the American land cress (which Gill loves) in the herb and salad bed. I made a row of carrots (Nantes 2) and planted some dwarf green beans (Sonesta) directly into the ground. A little early, but let’s see how they go.

The salad and herb plot looks nice with its little box hedge, but I wish that I’d made a separate herb bed. Still I can always modify it sometime.

Started sowing outside. I sowed turnip (Purple Top Milan), Parsnip (Avonresistor), broad bean (??) and cress (American Land). Inside I sowed some round courgette (Tondo di pienza).
