Courgettes.

As it is raining and not suitable to be out in the garden in, here is a picture I took yesterday of the courgette. This is the only one that survived from the two courgettes and two pumpkins I put in on the 7th of May.

As you can see it is not exactly as large as it was when it went in, but at least it has survived and established now. It should come on as we go through June.

Just to be careful I have planted two more in pots and they have come up. I will probably plant them out, but we will see as we had so many courgettes last year that after freezing some, eating some giving some away and making cauldrons of soups, we still had to compost some of the larger ones. In the end I got fed up of eating them and refused to have any in my food. So I will probably find more people to give them to this year – I may even set up a stall outside and sell them.
