The first flowers in the tomato have arrived!🍅 And a cute tiny cucamelon. This year I sowed a small spaghetti squash for the first time and it is already growing flowers, just like the physalis, but I bought that one because sowing it didn't work 👩🏻🌾🌿 #growyourown #allotment

Woohoo!🎉 Nectarines and pears, coming soon!🍑🍐 You don't need a big backyard to grow fruit, the low-stemmed pear can even be grown in a pot on a balcony or terrace 💚 #growyourown

Currants, beetroot and cauliflower 💚 This year I pre-sown the beetroot in a seed tray because last year things didn't go so well with the directly sown seeds 🍀👩🏻🌾 #allotment

The colour of the homemade pansy vinegar is amazing! The allotment is full of them so with the next batch of pansies I'll make a syrup 💖 #growyourown #allotment

Something I've wanted for a long time is a fruit tree in the backyard. And now I have 2 😄 a nectarine and a dwarf pear. Then I saw an apricot strawberry...never heard of it so that had to come too and a beautiful Heuchera ruby bells 😍 #growyourown #gardeningsky

The fresh herbs have been replenished!🌱🌿 The herbs are going in the backyard because herbs in the allotment aren't very practical when cooking. And the tastiest is freshly picked 💚 #growyourown

Sow Sunday! Cucumbers, courgettes and a patisson sown today. For the first time the lemon courgette this year, previous years I sowed the yellow ball courgette. I wonder if there will be much difference in taste 💛 #growyourown #allotment

So happy that the lemon balm and pineapple sage are coming back to life! I really thought the sage wouldn't come back it looked so dead. Plants are so strong 💚 And the smell, delicious!🥰 #growyourown #allotment

The rhubarb may have looked a bit strange but that doesn't affect the taste. Delicious with Greek yoghurt, blood orange, apple mint and grapefruit mint 😋
