We’ve been having really heavy showers today which somewhat curtailed my activities. I did plant out two supermarket dahlias & the catmint I bought as a teat for Ben on my way home yesterday (Nepeta Six Hills Giant) into the back border.

I planted out the broad beans into a trough and hope they survive better than the first lot I planted into the ground - hopefully Ben won’t sit on them! In between rain showers, I enjoyed watching the bees still enjoying the bloody cranesbill and the new cirsium. I also had my first proper tea of leaf salad this year.
