Re the fern, I could write a book about my own planting misadventures: "Wrong Plant, Wrong Place"!

However, we still end up moving some plants due to size issues. I don't think it's bad. In fact, it makes our gardens an ongoing project. Thanks for the great post and pictures!

Now I know why it looks downtrodden and sat upon. Because it was slept upon! Ah Lucy, Chocolat likes my small, very small, lemon verbena. Now I know why it looks downtrodden and sat upon.

And I'm mightily impressed by the cucumbers. Think before you plant? if I did that, my garden would look much better, and I'd have more money in the bank. Great cabbage.

That way cats can discover how comfortable it is to sit on. The following year(s) they won't have to wait. They'll know it can be trampled as soon as it begins to grow - and be sat upon.

Your red cabbage looks good too. Everything here is wet and miserable as we have had a couple of days of thunder and lightening storms. So you are not alone with the bed weather.

Next year I shall try growing cucumbers - I have never grown them, and I am wondering why not! Lucifer does have a habit of lurching all over the place at this time of year - but your bench still looks very inviting. :) K That is a seriously impressive red cabbage.

Can't wait to do it again over again next season. That cabbage is gorgeous, good job! We all have these 'what was I thinking plantings' in our garden. It's a glorious fern, maybe you can find a new place for it to show off? :) I grew cukes for the first time this summer and they were wonderful. Can’t wait to do it again over again next season.

Those shop bought ones never seem as crunchy :( If you should disappear in the garden next year Digger will know where to find you :) I am hoping to visit the allotment tomorrow and pick what might be the last of my cucumbers.
