 A trip to the allotment, the first for several weeks. I took a Sedum and a Hosta that someone had kindly left in the surplus box.



 White Comfrey and Raspberry canes.



 Rhubarb Rhubarb




 Symphytum ibericum in full flower and attracting bees.




 Red Campion and Wild Tulip in the wildflower bed. 



 The perennial bed: Sage, Fennel, Chives, Babbington's Leek, Lovage, Lemon Balm et al.




  Red Deadnettle doing well in this wheelbarrow with no wheel.



 I prepared this bed to sow with various flowery edibles: Chicory, Cornflower, Black Caraway, Pot Marigold, Wild Rocket. Borage already self-seeds here.
