The autistic gardener

Down at the allotment I was still disappointed by the state of my brassicas. They had been completely eaten away down to the stalks. So I pulled up what little of them remained in one plot, and planted some onions and leeks.  I'm not sure which is which. They are unwanted plants growing on my friends' plot. I had thought that the gooseberry bush from the pound shop had kicked the bucket, but it seems to have suddenly sprung into life. I'm looking forward to some raspberries later in the season, provided the wildlife doesn't eat them first.  The broad beans are doing lovely. While I was there I gave the place another good watering and helped myself to some more of that lovely rhubarb.
