7 Courgettes, some mangetout and a bowl of raspberries.
Salad bowl lettuce, land cress, basil, chives, nasturtiums flowers, radishes and spring onions.
Those Toms look great scarlet I’m rather envious.
Lettuce, cucumber, spring onions, radish pods, basil, thyme.

Well I don't think I've ever had beans so thin and long as this before? The weather? The variety?
This is Avalon - from the seed circle a few years.
Average length is about 6inches...some are 7 and a half. Very chuffed with these today.
# these are early as they are planted in the green house. I have climbing ones outside - nowhere near cropping yet.
Are they DFBs, Scarlet, maybe from Nellie?
I've just looked through my beans stash - found Artemis, Avalon, Adour, Aramis - but not Avalon!
Sorry...just went back up to check!
They are Aquilon - dwarf french bean.
I don't know who they came from. I can't find the pack but definitely from a swap. I will be growing these again. Must make sure I don't eat them all as I've only 10 plants.
One raspberry and a dish of strawberries.
