More Paws

Here's another of the Kangaroo Paws that are flowering out the front at the moment. These ones are Yellow Gem and have multiple red stems to nearly two meters.



Weekend Past

This past weekend I planted out the last of this season’s tomatoes. These were seedlings I grew from seed ordered from Diggers. I planted out two Mortage Lifters as described in this post. Two Amish Paste that have elongated fruit and are supposed to be good fresh or, as the name suggests, for preserving. Two Costoluto Genovese, another all rounder with meaty ribbed fruit and finally two Sugarlump that have largish, cherry type 3cm fruit. The last three have been planted one in the no-dig section of the garden and one in a pot. I've never grown these three so we'll see how they perform.

I pulled my garlic over the weekend and ended up with twenty two heads this year. I grew them in the ground rather than pots and although they take up the space for a long time I think they'll be in the ground again next year. Here's a few of them

And a few of the nice purple cloves that came loose in the process
