Turned out nice again


Recently got back from a short trip to Nice. Noticed that the municipal planting often included edibles amongst the flower displays. From bold red stems of chard to frills of red kale and silvery spikes of cardoons. I could not resist a trip in to a garden centre to see what varieties might be on sale. I think I showed considerable restraint by only coming back with a couple of seed packets in the suitcase.
