Maize

Roger, our gardener is very sweet and decided that we needed some extra plants in the garden. We had removed a row of old mish- mashed scrubby shrubs, added manure and planted some pretty plants which were still a bit low, but growing nicely. Roger felt that they were too small and I spotted him planting some kind of seeds, a conversation followed where I thought I'd asked him to not plant anything else, but to give the new plants some time to grow together.


Some time later, the seed stock became apparent and we had a mini cornfield eating the pretty plants manure...



our harvest was....meagre to say the least and went to feed the chickens that live round the corner
