Things are rising!

Seedlings that is!  Apart from the flowers, everything I have sown has germinated.  Some are a little sparse such as the red cabbage but they're getting bigger.


I've sown further brassicas as well.  These are calabrese, kale and a cabbage which can be harvested as spring greens.


On the plot, the garlic is growing well and is not suffering from rust yet.  The broad beans are coming on slowly and are being left alone by the pigeons, as are the endives.  No signs of the onions or shallots shooting yet but they have only been in for a week so plenty of time.


The raspberries seem to have tolerated being moved and are showing signs of growing well.  To add to the raspberries I'm going to get a couple of blackberries.  This will make the bottom of the plot all fruit which includes rhubarb.  Yes, I know rhubarb is actually a vegetable but I'm classifying it as fruit to therefore it is!
