rhubarb

Loads of salad leaves - got a raised bed that is just for salad leaves: about 1/3 being harvested and used at moment, 2nd sowing in next section in a few weeks or so. Just a mix of about a dozen different varieties of lettuce, other leaves, beetroot, herbs etc.. mixed up at random, and just wanting the leaves. Good "cut and gro" which has allowed me to select what I want in there, rather than the commercial "cut and gr" seed packets. Have been working through that for about a month now and it's just wonderful.

Purple sprouting broccoli.

Parsley, coriander, basil, tarragon, chives, sage

Asparagus.

Leek thinnings: some of the thin grassy ones initially but now have a few trays of thicker stemmed leeks (the ones I am not going to plant out - grown just to eat so early on in their short lives): lovely in salad or sauteed.

Pick the first 2 strawbs of the year today. Wasn't overly impressed though   hopefully they'll get better as the year goes on.

Asparagus! Yeaaaaaa!!!
I have waited about 12 years to get a bed devoted to asparagus; planted it out last year and am now trying to pick "thinly" this years crop. Hubby and I seem to disagree as to what "thinly" means!

Basil, parsley and lettuce.

Lucky bu**er, I sowed my asparagus from seed last year ... not gonna tell you how many years I've waited, more than you .... looks brilliant this year, amazed it survived my growing and transplanting abilities

Still have to wait until next year before I can even contemplate picking a spear and cooking it in butter with garlic .... *meanders off into dream world* ... it's worth the wait, nothing tastes quite like it

Hang on in there Yabba!

It will be worth every morsel. I promise.

You're such a tease! Thanks for reminding me that it'll taste like heaven ... next year ... at the earliest. It's killing me watching it all turning into fronds, but worth the wait :'(

If I could only plant one veg it'd be asparagus

We had folk staying last night (a friend of a friend) and I went to show them our veg patch and the cucumbers that were forming...... and tho and behold there were 2, yep 2 cueŽs all ready to pick..... IŽd missed them, how I do not know.  We had one with a salad yesterday, using the yellow and red chard to add interest to the shop bought lettuce. 
We have a few peas coming- this year is going to be a bad crop I think.   We have a melon the size of an orange- I think it is a melon!! It might be a pumpkin   Will know when it gets bigger.  The proper pumpkin has 2 or 3 pea sized pumpkins growing.  I picked the first courgettes today too.

ps the first toms will be ready to pick very soon too
