The end of an era. My humble Upright Rosemary is no more.

🧄The garlic has come out... it wasn't the best - not because of the rust this time but it was in too long during wet weather and it split. Next year I won't start my early varieties quite so early. 🌽In the newly empty bed I have sown some Yates Pop Star Strawberry Popcorn. They are 6 weeks behind the Early Chief Sweetcorn which is 8 weeks behind the Glass Gem Corn. 🌽To avoid cross pollination between corn varieties you either need to seperate them by space (at least 45m but more is better) or by time (at least 3 weeks - if not more) : o) ...
