Bonkers

Things have been going bonkers in the garden of late. This has a lot to do with the prodigious amount of rain we've had for the last couple of weeks.

The rocket is threatening to escape from its bed and the runner beans are fighting to get away from their wigwam supports. The borage has started to flower and is attracting lots of bees and hoverflies.

At the back,what I like to call 'the wilderness', the nasturtiums have decided to climb up the trellis and have reached the top of the wall. The borage at the back has yet to flower but the leaves are massive compared its flowering brethren. Broad beans are going great guns. I'm hoping to harvest them in a week.
