Hi yeah so I’m not sure if this fits here but I’m posting it anyway. I live in a van so my garden has to be in pots so I can move it when I have to. Also there’s fuck all soil where I am right now. I’m mostly about flowers, I’m not growing any food this summer except that tomato plant in the blue crate, someone gave me that and I couldn’t not give it a chance. I think it’s a heritage beef tomato. There’s a couple of apples in the mix, one of em flowered in spring but they were only cuttings& grafts last year so doubt it’ll fruit. The rest is meant to be pretty stuff, sweet peas, calendulas (dead headed, hopefully back soon, those fuckers are bulletproof), marigolds (slug attack but couple survivors) gladioli, couple of roses, snap dragons, sunflowers be coming late due to sluggery, cornflowers, the orange crate is supposed to be meadow flowers, we’ll see what happens there. Anyway, if no-one tells me not to I’ll post another pic in a few weeks cos all being well it’ll only get prettier

My succulent is flowering! There’s something about it that makes me think little shop of horrors. I don’t normally grow succulents, was gifted a little tiny bit a couple of years ago, left it on the dashboard of my van and it thrived. It’s outdoors now for the summer and seems to be loving it
