Profile Information

About Me:
I am married with 2 children 18 and 10. I work at a local Secondary School and one of my passions is gardening in my very limited spare time. My other passion is Salsa (Cuban style)!

I started growing herbs on my kitchen window sill many years ago and have slowly progressed from there.

It has all taken off since I moved from my 4th floor flat to a small house with a front garden. I have been able to experiment more with things like potatoes and tomatoes which take up more room.

This year I am concentrating on growing onions, garlic and potatoes all things I know I will eat.
Key Interests
Education, Gardening
Experience/Skills
I am not an experienced gardener however I love to see things grow and I manage to get them to grow. It's eating them I haven't got the hang of yet!

They're foxgloves. Should be flowering in a month or so. You'll have a good display!
