raised beds are made from linka board, recycled plastic that are rot proof and easily assembled have grown Broad beans, onions, sweet corn and Courgettes, tried dwarf french beans but slugs and snails had them. tried butternut squash good growth but poor fruit. Have just planted chinese winter veg, will plant onions and winter sowing of broad beans after sweetcorn used up. Also grown Aubergines in small greenhouse cloche.

You seem to have a real talent for fitting lots into a small space!

Its grown slowly over 15 years, but I'm pleased with the results.

It's a good point you make, that gardens develop slowly.
I expect your neighbours get a nice view of
your greenery from their upstairs windows.
