More from out the front

This is the Leucospermum "Cape Gold" in full fig in the front garden. These are also known as Pincushion Proteas. And here is the latest from the rest of the front garden this weirdly warm spring.

Spinach

The English Spinach keeps growing faster than I can pick it. And there's only so much spinach you can eat. It's at it's best raw, when young, in salads or sandwiches. As it's grown larger I've sauteed off some garlic then quickly tossed through some leaves until just wilted. It's ok but you have to be fast because, unlike the Cavelo Nero, it turns to mush very quickly. Is it worth growing? Probably not.
