Vegetable Patch

Tomato to Asparagus

Asparagus

I have finished looking after the orchids now, I think it is about time to plant my vegetables. 

My vegetable patch is full from the winter plants; such as red and savoy cabbages also some herbs. However, there is space for a few more plants.  I planted the red tomatoes the other day, today I will plant the yellow one. 

Hot chillies, beans, eggplants and zucchinis I love to plant them too, maybe this coming week.  And the annual herbs: basils; sweet basil and Vietnamese basil.

The asparagus keeps on coming up, so far we have harvested about ten also, and now I saw about six shooting up.

New Tomato Plants-Planted This Week

Gardening is so rewarding, I found it very relaxing.  I enjoy the rewards, and this is one of them.  I baked mini herb bread with the fresh herbs from the garden.  I am pleased that I could share the recipe.
