I’ve added a few pebbles to the pond, but they mostly rolled off the front shelf into the depths, so I didn’t bother with many. I’ll get some farm rock at some point and that can be added. The beetles and tiny creatures are loving the bird bowl, though probably less when the birds turn up in my absence.

I’ve planted up Bed 11 now. Eight sweetcorn plants of various sizes are in. I’ve put two seeds in the empty hole and one seed near the smallest plant in case it doesn’t survive the move. At the right end of the bed I’ve put in five or so gourd plants. “Or so” because a couple of them had brand new plants coming up next to the main plant.

A couple of cerinthe and some malope have been put into Bed 1. I think that’s everything now, so it’s just up to the bed to do what it will.

There’s still most of a tray of Jewel nasturtiums leftover, which might be put into Beds 6 and 9 just because. I’ve put four of them into the white pot where the calendula had died. The soil’s awful in that pot, so let’s see how that helps. I had a few trailing nasturtiums in the sweetcorn tray, which I’ve put into a tray of six for Suzy.
