Welcome to my blog!

Here, I journal the transformation of our tiny London backyard into a dream garden. I hope you will like it!

A dream garden, for me, is an outdoor space filled with rich colours and seductive scents, offering beautiful flowers, interesting textures and tasty morsels for our delectation. Also a source of nourishment for the local wildlife - birds, butterflies and bees. A space to enjoy with my SO, friends, family, and, of course, our cats. Somewhere to sit and have coffee, or even a meal, and a tiny patch of grass to lie on in the fleeting sunshine of the English summer. And, we're almost there...

Unless stated otherwise, all photos are by me (or my SO) and are clickable.

More radishes - no pics

The next day I harvested 3 even more plump radishes (they are not supposed to look spherical like ordinary supermarket globes, they are a cylindrical variety called French Breakfast (sic)), and since then I've had whole radishes (including leaves) in salad every day. There are still some growing, and today I sowed some more in the same planter, adding a little bit of potting compost. I think that I should start sowing a few seeds every week, as we really like them. Just - where? I used up all the litter trays, and there's hardly any space left on the patio table...
