Following all the lovely rain we have had the Purple Podded Mange Touts are in flower and look fabulous. I grew these mainly for their flowers, this year I want to make the veggie plot look pretty as well as be productive, but of course we will eat the mange touts too.
I tied them in (in the rain this week) with my lovely purple string, which I think was well worth the extra pennies!
The rain has done the whole garden so much good – everything is romping away, I’ve picked some of the artichokes for supper, which I’m going to braise in some white wine, garlic and chilli and have with some cheese and crusty bread! Yum…
