Our garden collections
We are visiting DIY shops weekly to do some home improvement and will always visit the garden centre and buy something for the garden.
This is our collections :-
Goji Berry (it was only a bare roots with no leaf when we bought it, now it's has grown.
I always want a cherry tree and have bought the first one that fit into our garden (It's a miniature patio version which means it will only grow up to 2m in height), however later did I realise that it's sour cherry (for cooking). Hopefully, if I leave the cherry abit longer (when it fruits), it will be less sour and can be eaten straight from the tree.
Lemon tree, again it's a minature patio type, so it's small.
My climbling roses to grow on the fences and use as security measure.
Potatoes bag. Can you see the 2 small little plants growing from the bag. Apparently the potatoes are ready for collection when the plant flowers. Not sure when the little plants will grow and flower.
Broad beans plant, growing well but no beans yet.
Strawberry plants. These are not those we grew from seed, as they either died are way to small to bear any fruits this summer. Therefore we bought small strawberry plant pots from garden centre and plant them onto this strawberry pot. Really hope there's some fruits for us this year!
Spring onions, they are small, isn't it.
My carrots!! Hope the pot are big and deep enough for them to grow.
Rockets for salads.
The one that we are most proud of - Lettuce. We bought the 99 pences pot set from Homebase for growing lettuce and repot them into these 2 larger pot. These are great for the guinea pigs and they love it!
Our other plants (e.g. peppers, sunflowers, chili padi) in the greenhouse)
Hope these plants will cut down on our grocery shopping expenses each week.
