But the effort that you put in is well worth the return. Its lovely to have your own produce and it tastes so much better. Bet your gardens are a lot of hard work.

As for the basket--what a lovely idea! I must have a few to grow my herbs. Thanks for sharing. I simply love the idea of an allotment and yours, with all those veggies, looks great!

Here weeds are appearing at an alarming rate at my allotment. Must be all this May rain. Your hanging salad basket is thriving. I would be tempted to nibble if I went past. I like those frames at the small allotment - are they homemade ? It’s looking good after the tidy up. Here weeds are appearing at an alarming rate at my allotment. Must be all this May rain.

Looks like you have a busy few months ahead. You may need a watering system for your greenhouse vegetables. On your back garden plot you mention you are preparing your plot for brassicas, if you are growing cabbages, will you just sow now for autumn/winter varieties? I always get confused with my cabbages, what type to sow when, one thing I'm trying to concur this year! Wow, you’ve got loads of room to put lots and lots of veggies, I’m slightly jealous.

So many different vegetables. Are you freezing the surplus? I like it how you have maintained a border of flowers. When I was the vegetable gardener I had rows of Dahlias and gladioli along the border. Since " my vegetable gardener" has taken over, (in a way I am glad as I have plenty of work with the ornamental plants) all the decorative elements have disappeared and it is pure utilisation! It is a pleasure that the veggies are decorative to look at. The feathery carrot- and fennel tops, the tall peas with their profusion of pea flowers and soft green leaves. etc. etc. Hope I do not keep you to long from your work with my long tirade. The hanging pot with the salad leaves looks extremely well and I am sure it is handy to pick a few leaves for a treat in the salad bowl. I wish you happy, sunny and warm days to grow all the tomatoes and warmth loving veggies. The vegetable garden looks a treat a credit to your hard work. So many different vegetables.

You could have a really colorful hanging garden with a few herbs in another basket. I like the idea of the lettuce hanging garden!
