ewt | How does your garden grow?

Bedraggledly, in my case.

A warm summer again, they aren't sure about rainfall though.

My passionflower appears to be still alive, as does one currant plant and the gooseberry. I thought they were destroyed by falling fence but this is not the case. Must set up something for the passionflower to climb... and hope that when the fence does eventually get replaced, the currants and gooseberries don't get trodden on.

Chives are very happy. Rosemary has succumbed to whatever weird-ass rust it had, I think. Mint everywhere, of course. Other perennials looking mostly okay so far.

Drains are a mess. I might try to have a go at sorting them out later if there is time and I am not-sore enough. Somehow, household plumbing tasks fall to me no matter where I am. I'd really like to get a greywater thing that doesn't SMELL TO HIGH HEAVEN set up this year; I have a vague PLN for this but it requires application of funds. Bah.

Veg bed is full of weeds except in the bits I managed to cover. Need to sort out raised beds... I'm better able to bend than I was earlier in the year, but even a little bit of elevation will help a lot. Potatoes - I want to do a stack again, because it seems like the best way.

Haven't started any seeds yet at all. Not good!

Lots of dandelions; might make bright yellow soup out of the flowers at some point.
