Some Vegetables & Herbs Doing Well In My Garden Despite The Heatwave



Repotted spring onions into a bigger container outside the kitchen

Repotted rosemary also set outside the kitchen

I love to nibble on the nasturtiums when I step outside the kitchen

Lettuce seedlings in a shaded corner of the house outside the main garden

Happy about the watermelon that self-planted among the maize

Another batch of maize, planted later than the first one

I keep picking the chilli, but more comes through. ***happy dance***
The sun scorches my poor poor cucumber seedlings

The baby marrows are also getting a beating from the sun

Our First Harvest of White Maize/Corn


Today I harvested our first batch of maize/corn. It's still a bit puny, but it will grow bigger, especially with the rains coming more often as they have been of late.

I'm looking forward to more of this in the coming weeks. Nomnomnomnom!
