Somewhere here, I mentioned that Mrs G is adept at finding spare odd spaces for left over seedlings and other plants, when we have filled the intended rows.

Aside from worrying too much about crop rotation etc, we often have an 'Orphan bed', which can take all manner of veg which would otherwise get left out and probably chucked, or given away. There will certainly be several onions or shallots, possibly a calabrese or broccoli, lots of leeks, a tomato or three, and anything else that gets brung up in the greenhouse, and doesn't have a home to go to!

This year's seems to have become the reponsibility of the rhubarb patch...

We have a mix up bed in front of our shed, about  metre square.

So far it has four broad bean plants, two foxgloves, six bunching onions and space for a couple of tomatoes as I just know there will be some left....

We created a triangular bed down one side of the polytunnel a couple of years ago, where there was a daft little patch of lawn left to one side of some paving slabs which we laid to the gate of the veg patch. This bed, apart from housing my hardy herbs, has evolved a similar function, where the odd spare little gem or red onion or such might be planted - nothing too tall or it would shade the tunnel. It started off as a flower bed, but it only grew edible stuff last year. I like it to be colourful as much as possible, so rainbow chard fits in well there too.

Don't have a bed as such, but I'm not adverse to sticking the odd plant in at the end of a row of something else.

The lavender's looking after a couple of spuds and the blackcurrants are taking care of the oca so far.

Rainbow Chard is looking lovely at the moment Argyllie, and cooks up great as well!

Actually DD, we just can't leave spaces where there are so many odd plants to pop in, they just go there, and we worry about the consequences much later...
