I walked round to the allotments this morning and took loads of photos. Came home and processed them all. But also slightly miffed. I loved having an allotment but feel I am too old to handle it. However I got into conversation with an allotmenteer who had a find display of zinnias and discussed his plants and successes. Many and various - actually he was not boasting I could see for myself. What did surprise me was that he had two allotments and the one I saw was tiny. I could manage that. Hmmm! I can just hear what Dorothy will say to that. However the allotmenteer suggested I should get a mini Rotatiller which would avoid digging. The soil looked sandy to me and not clay as in our garden. Now I wonder.
The allotment zinnias with dahlias raised from seed beside them. But mostly it was veg - and sunflowers. Everyone had sunflowers.
