Summer flowers, broccoli and carrots

Aren't they lovely? All these in the picture have been given to me as cuttings or seeds by my Mum. Looking forward to harvesting some seeds from the marigolds, they are such a lovely cheerful colour.

Really glad I didn't rush to put these purple sprouting brocs in the ground in May. I repotted them in slightly larger pots and waited, as the packet states. They're going in the ground in the next couple of days.

Carrots - love them and so easy to grow, especially in large pots. This is the first wave and all doing nicely. The netting is to keep off unwanted, nosey hens!

I just love the color of those flowers... Daisy flowers are my most favorite...
