"At work"

Another mild October day, and it's been spent potting up plants for sale next spring and sorting out the herb plants that might be sold via the farm shop in a few weeks' time if they continue to make good progress.

Baby cottage garden perennials - foxgloves, columbines, lady's mantle and candelabra primulas
(also available in Latin - see the favourite plants page for details)

It will be great if this side of the business takes off, especially as I'm a bit too close to 50 to spend too many days in the average week doing heavy digging!

The two mini-greenhouses just about squeeze into the polycarb one in the garden, so I now have quite a lot of space for raising cuttings and protecting the tender ones if we get more seriously freezing weather this winter.  Hope not...

Herbs to go - including Vietnamese coriander, tangerine sage, grapefruit mint, golden variegated sage and lavender.
