West facing wall. What veg to grow?
In article , Baz
writes We have jumped the gun and put in some broad beans and quite a few goosegogs. Broad beans are fine and even early peas just look on the back of the seed packet and you'll see when they recommend. Now's the time to plant fruit trees of course (soil is still warm) There's some very good varieties of Rhubarb especially any with Champagne in the name. Winter lettuce might be okay of you buy plants or even try sowing a late variety in pots then planting outdoors. Janet -- Janet Tweedy Dalmatian Telegraph http://www.lancedal.demon.co.uk |

Thanks RH, Something we had not thought of, and we are going to plant some fruit bushes anyway so this might be the ideal spot. I was going to suggest cordoning a couple of fruit trees (probably on dwarfing stock) along the top edge of the wall, with fruit bushes in front of it. Could be fun. |
