An autistic gardener

The recording is of a sarabande in F by d'Anglebert, after Chambonnieres' O Beau Jardin. I've had horticulture on my mind ever since yesterday, when my friend so generously gave me part of his new allotment to cultivate. I've always grown flowers, wild plants and herbs, but this time I think I'd like to try my hand at growing something edible. I was thinking along the line of gooseberries, runner beans, perhaps a marrow or two for starters. What has always put me off growing food is the huge variety of nasties that are out their, and waiting to eat the crop. Let's see. Can't wait!
