Much Inspired by Gardeners World.

I watched Gardeners World last week and was much inspired by their simple account of easy gardening for the hobby amateur gardener working full time and only able to get out for 10 minutes between showers every other week.. I thought I would adopt their style.

So this weekend I looked out and consciopus of global warming I decided to grow my own vegetables. I started with buxom rusticulatum or sea-horse radish behind the potting shed before slipping a sharp spade easily into my fine tilth. My variety was called "Lively Lady" and I chose her because of her pendulous double stamens that dazzle in the early morning sun. Cultivation is very easy. You water every ten minutes during the night, and only 20 minutes during the day for the best results. I start mine off in an old shoe box which I leave in a damp corner of the Jacuzzi. Buxom is a heavy feeder and I used plenty of well rotted bull shit.

Next week I shall talk about my clemontones, gloriosa conperceptiii and growing them in a medium sized garden and I will enlist the help of a few villagers to run the threshing machine in the back field.
