My original strawberries simply didn't happen.
My fault for buying discounted stock from Aldi.
Still, I bought some plugs from eBay and have planted three in the hanging basket and the others around Penny (my baby cherry tree).
She's doing beautifully -- I really should have taken photos. She's gone from a single stick into a little sapling.
No fruit from her this year of course - and perhaps not next year.
But it's supposed to be a bumper year for strawberries, thanks to the conditions.
I don't mind feeding the birds with my produce, but if they look like becoming edible, I'll be buying nets.
A vid to show the tiny extent of my personal gardening.
I might attempt to cut the grass this weekend (usually Dad’s job). Part of me feels bad that he will come back to a jungle otherwise.
But on the flip side, Mum has forbidden me, thinking I am likely to go over the power cord or sever my own toes…
