A bit of the back garden

After worrying about my rhubarb plants looking sad, they eventually took off after lots of watering:
We have picked around 4lb off the four plants in there, so not too shabby at all. The herbs are growing away nicely. Thyme in full flower. The empty looking pots have two different types of mint in them. They were getting ready to flower so I cut them back:
The vinegar containers that were recently planted up, near a south facing wall, were getting too hot for the soil. I cut a double thickness of black weed suppressant material and pegged it around the containers - a whole lot cooler for the soil:

  2. What a lovely back garden. Good idea to cover the vinegar pots with that fabric.

    God bless.
