Waning daylight hours

our little patch is growing wonderfully - carrots, sage, rosemary, oregano, basil...

the beautiful flowers of salvia elegans, or pineapple sage - a fierce
grower and so easy to propagate!

in lieu of space for soil we've started collecting 5litre water bottles to make
pots which we will fill with soil

the huge garden wall is starting to block out more and more sunlight, so
we've started an experiment to see if reflected light can still help a little
seedling to grow up into the direct light

ginger - likes moisture and no sun

garlic is fabulous! and those 5 litre water bottles work really well

new tomato seedlings with oregano in the middle and gooseberry at the back,
also some wild dandelion and other weeds

little peppadew in its new space next to a wild geranium
(peppers + geranium = companions)
