Looks like allium sphaerocephalon but not certain ,they flower late . Get well soon Dora .

Lovely video. I hope you feel better soon.🤗

Fantastisch Good work Dora..Thank you for sharing how to harvest and identify elderflower.

Bless you Dora, that was a very relaxing video, hoping you're feeling better soon, there seems to be a lot of Covid around again at the moment. Elderflower cordial is a seasonal treat and so refreshing in this hot weather, good to add to Prosecco too, freshly harvested Charlotte potatoes too such a treat and always exciting to reveal your first crop ! The warm evening light on the stone walls of your house is beautiful !

I hope you're feeling better now, Dora. Thank you for sharing how to harvest and identify elderflower. I'm a visual learner so I really appreciate it. Bruno is a darling isn't he 😍😍

Hi Dora sorry your not 100% sending you virtual huggs and a big blue ball of healing energy as always happy gardening Richardx

Hope you are feeling better today Dora and thanks for the lovely wood / garden tour with Bruno . Will be pinching the elastic band idea to support my tomatoes 🍅

🤞 & 🙏 that you don't take too long to recover ... and hope you are taking enough Vitamins D3, K & C to help keep your immune system in top form ! It was lovely to see the views of the countryside around where you live ... the UK has some really stunning views doesn't it 🥰 ... and I'm looking forward to finding out if your "hiding" of those veg in amongst your flowers will help to hide them from all of the pesrs that are around.

Great work Dora..nice video, you seem to be creating a beautiful veggie garden. good work

That was a lucky black cat Dora, so your leeks will probably be massive . Thanks for the update and taking us garden shopping.

Looking fab Dora and hope third times a charm for the leeks. I sow mine from seed in a pot then separate once they look big enough. Hope the sun sticks around, Ali 🌞🇨🇦

Another nice video, you seem to be creating a beautiful veggie garden.

Looking good Dora you will soon hit a thousand subs keep up the good work..

Great work Dora, allotment is blooming 👏🥦

I'm trying to grow leeks this season for the first time! They are alive but growing really slow about same size as my onions from seed...radishes on the other hand growing super fast

Well I'm late to the party here! I'm sorry I've not seen your channel until now. What a lovely video! I've just watched it having my breakfast and smiled throughout. Good luck with your plot & your channel. I'm sure you're going to go far!!! See you on my lives in autumn haha! Danny 🌱🙏🌼

lovely update Dora, at least you can smile like the rest of us, its certainly been a struggle this year with the slugs, they even made the BBC news.

Thanks for the tour Dora, it's been a difficult spring for many, but your plot is looking lovely !

your nut tree is hazelnut :)

Your flower bed, The white daisy looks like Feverfew , the small pinky White flower looked like Campion ( theres a red (dk pink) and a white so you've probably got the two + hybrids The geranium, is probably Bloody cranesbill (or i a cultivar) ... you need some welsh poppies in there and some night scented stock and it will be a riot. Sweet williams, it will soon be time to sow them and walflowers ( I remember my dad sowing them in a nursery bed then transplanting them - once you have them established they will self seed year after year. DOn't worry too much about trying to grow everything, just enjoy growing and picking what you get , theres always next year

If you choose the dwarf variety 'the Sutton', you can sow your broad beans in November for harvesting around now. I find that about three quarters will germinate over winter and then I sow a few more indoors in February to plug any gaps. Since I started doing this, I haven't had any problems with aphids although that may just be pure coincidence. I do the same with peas (var Meteor) and I'm eating them already, and I do the same with onions (var Shakespeare) and they're nearly ready now... another couple of weeks maybe. Of all the overwintering onions that I've tried, Shakespeare gives me the best yield and they store really well strung up in the garage. With all of them, I hoop and fleece to protect them during the winter months. The growing season is a bit shorter in Co Durham compared to the Cotswold's, so I find this extends the growing season quite a bit

If you haven't dug out the chard, you could try cutting out the flowering spikes and see if they regrow. I love chard, the slugs leave it alone, the pigeons don't seem to bother with it, they keep producing right through the winter and into the following year. I personally prefer the white and orange ones to the red, but that's because I wait until they grow really big leaves, which the red seem less able to do. I pull the leaves off (a bit like rhubarb) and let them re-grow. I personally don't bother too much with the stalks, although they are perfectly edible, so I take the centre vein out, shred the leaves, give them a wash and wilt them down in a wok, leave them to cool, then squash into balls and freeze them on a tray before bagging them up. Then over the Winter and the following Spring I add them to soups, broths and stews. Packed full of iron, magnesium and vitamins, particularly vit K and vit A. Marvellous! You mentioned winding the climbing beans around the canes, but you were winding them in a clockwise direction and they wind in the opposite direction in the northern hemisphere, so they'll just unwind themselves again every time you do it

If I was you i would definitely get rid of all the straw and grass clippings around the potatoes as that will only encourage the slugs and snails to hide in there during the day and come out at night and eat all you crops hope that helps it’s been a really really bad year for them which doesn’t help

Guidance is getting from your video. I'm working by watching your video

*Correction - the opening title should say Sunday. We definitely did not have lovely weather on the Saturday ☔️☔️☔️

you were mirrored in this video did you notice it for there was at least twice so I had to see where and when there was right and wrong but it was an interesting video nonetheless

Your plot looks lovely! Impressive Brocolli 😊

Wow awesome broccoli 🥦 harvest. Blue skies hmm 🤔 no it’s wet cold and oh yeah wet 😂 here. But we are gardeners we just move in. Fab update Dora have a wonderful week, Ali 🌧️🌧️🇨🇦

Thanks for the guided tour Dora .

It's so annoying that the slugs have eaten so much of your produce. I really like the idea of the cages but I'm not sure how you can block slugs out unless you put some tarp or a cover around the bottom outside of the fencing (I don't know if that makes sense aha!) But your plot is looking lovely so really great effort. Well done ♡

your allotment is coming on fine well done young lady

The daisy flower is feverfew, I think

I guess Hazel/Filbert then Mulberry for the trees.

another delightful video😊"Cage of death" 🤣well done plot's looking great

Hi Dora, If you pinch the growing tips out of the broad beans once the flowers have set they'll be less attractive to the aphids! Also, keep an eye out for ants as they'll farm aphids on your plants. You have a great attitude enjoying the harvests no matter the size and not letting the losses discourage you! Thank you for sharing your experiences.

This year has been a complete horror re slugs & snails 😢 It may help in your polly tunnel if you take out all of the grass from around the edge of the tunnel

Tip for broad beans.....direct sow first week of january [yes its cold and icy and makes no sense] and lets see what you get

Hi Dora another great episode,I told you on your last video that I don’t get slugs.think I spoke to soon my beans have been destroyed 😢

Hi I have tips on my channel to help with slugs and fruit trees wait till winter when dormant before pruning. The broad beans jet wash with a hose and blast them off. very little slug damage for 50 odd years as always happy gardening Richardx

Agree with the earlier comment about planting leeks. I like to water the ground thoroughly and then compress the surface with a plank, which helps to stop the soil collapsing in when creating the hole with a dibber. Before dropping the leek in the hole, I trim the roots to stimulate them to grow and to make it easier to drop the plant in the hole. I also trim the tops to reduce the burden on the plant while it establishes itself in the ground. Finally give them a good watering in to get the roots right down to the bottom of the hole, then just leave them alone. The plant will fill the hole as it grows. I usually wait until I've lifted my first early potatoes, which contains my excitement and stops me from planting them out too early. Here in the north of England, I find that any sort of hot dry spell in late summer causes my leeks to bolt if they've been put in too early, but if I wait, this doesn't happen. I end up with smaller leeks, but I don't mind that tbh. Some people like to tie cardboard tubes around each stem once they get bigger, in order to blanch them and get a longer white part, but I prefer the stronger taste of the green part if I'm honest, so I don't bother with that

Just a thought, Your corn needs to grow big enough to support the weight of the other 2 plants. If it's not it will topple over. I learned this the hard way. Your plot is coming along nicely.

🥬🍆🍅

🎉

lovely site you are on and I love your attitude to allotmenting... and the music's good too 🤣

Just a tip when planting out leeks, you need to make a hole with a dibber and simply drop them in and water them. SPINACH looks fantastic

Thanks for the update Dora, the plot is looking really good, and I agree it is a beautiful setting ! The eggs in the wood chips are ant eggs and larvae, we have a lot of problems with them too, they seem to get into everything, leave it open when you can the birds will help clear them up ! Don't take it personally with the Sweetcorn, I've heard many people saying they've struggled with Germination this year so have ended up buying some ! I must try that perennial spinach, Chard is such a useful crop as it stands through the winter !
