Time to replant the vegie garden. The lovely rocket in the photo below are all voluntaries - meaning they came up from seed I didn't plant, but from other rocket plants I allowed to go to seed. Jolly good of them, I say. Hmm. My cos is bolting! So, should I prune the seeding shoots, allow it to go to seed and sow voluntaries all over the bed, or turf it out onto the compost and plant a new punnetful?  |

Yes. They're delicious. Especially with a fragrant vinaigrette, freshly made by Wombat.

No. And I noticed there's a bare patch where she's buried. Not even any weeds. Do you think the plants are avoiding the area out of respect?
Before I replant, I'll take a photo of that section of the other vegie patch.

It might be lemon. Or nasty grapefruit. I hate grapefruit. Its so sour.  |

Lemons. It's a cultivar that doesn't grow very high but produces copious amounts of fruit. Stink bugs love them. I'm always hosing the damn things off.

Methinks we need Lisa here for some decent flower photos. Mine are abysmal, I know. I blame Photobooth, of course.
