FLOWERS GALORE and CHEEKY BUGS
My garden is small and it has to be versatile. I don't want heaps of flowers without the joy of eating my own garden produce; nor do I want loads of vegetables without the beauty and fragrance of flowers for picking or just enjoying in my garden.
Sometimes we miss things, I think. When I take a photo and get real close, it is funny what the camera sees that I initially missed. There is a spider in this hanging basket begonia. Cheeky little beggar, pinching the bees' pollen.
I think begonias are lovely in a hanging basket and, of course, they tolerate partial shade.
One of my favourite things to grow is sweet peas. This year I have sacrificed a little of the scent of the old-fashioned type by growing a mixture of a more modern kind. They are still fragrant and so it is a happy compromise.
