  1. A '#PotagerGarden' Is Perfect for Anyone Who Wants to Start Growing Their Own Food

    Calling all green-thumbed cooks!

    By Laura Fenton, April 17, 2025

    Excerpt (I LOVE this idea and have used it):

    Incorporate Decorative Garden Structures

    "Potager gardens often include decorative vertical elements like trellises and tuteurs. 'I replaced all my boring metal tomato cages with willow pyramids, and I love adding trellises for vertical climbers like sweet peas and cucumbers,' says Poshusta. Likewise, decorative cloches can add that vertical element and protect your crops from nibbling animals. Gardner has an arbor with climbing roses that defines the entry to her potager."

  2. Afternoon, our roses are starting to erupt all over the place in the garden. This delightful one is called Tottering by Gently and has large pale primrose single flowers that slowly take on a pink hue as they age.

  3. Happy Thursday.

    We are awaiting the warmer weather and the promise of some rain over the next few days.

    Meanwhile, our rose Noble Antony has made an appearance in the undergrowth.

    Have a great day wherever you all are. 🙂
