The first picture is taken from the walkway approaching our front door, with the tomato on the left, guarded by three basil plants, & then my mini Weber on the right. Below is a close-up of the tommies.
Here we've got a bird's eye of the zucchini, or courgette as it's called in the UK. Fi likes to batter & pan-fry the flowers, a traditional Italian dish called fiori di zucca. My goodness, they are delicious.
These are the window-boxes, hanging from the rails. Around the herbs planted within these boxes, Fi's growing flowering peas, which produce no fruit, but in the last few weeks, they've started putting out these extremely pretty red, white, & purple blooms.
Gorgeous, aren't they? Down below the window boxes, we've got some more herbs & pea plants, one of them in a teapot!
The final picture is of the latest tomato crop. There's nothing like a homegrown tomato. I added these to a pot of seafood jambalaya, my dinner this evening. It's fine if you're jealous.
