Trellis scene 2


Here is a photo of the trellis looking through the tunnel path to the greening lawn.

Trellis for vegetables and flowers


This morning I took some photos of the trellis I built to grow butternut and other squash over, courgettes, beans and flowers, with the bed this side of the trellis planted in three sisters fashion with sweet corn, squash, courgette and beans. In the forefront, you can see the netting for runner beans, with sunflowers growing behind it, and a raised bed with tomatoes, red and yellow peppers, marigolds, and sweet basil growing. The bed has also been seeded with pot marigolds and I wait to see their emergence and the impact of raised bed companion planting visually and productively.
