Apart from putting the mosaics up, the inside of the limery is complete. All the plants that have been struggling along outside during our less-than-reliable summer weather are potted up and basking in the balmy conditions inside. Somehow I’ve ended up with many more chilli plants than I need and rather fewer pepper plants than I had hoped for, but everything got rather random earlier in the year and so it’s a bit of a miracle that there’s anything at all in there that I grew from seed!
So, for your delight and delectation, here is the limery with it’s current plant population – not very diverse, but exciting nonetheless:
New lime leaves
Still space to sit
Looking in from the outside
Almost everything is edible
Rows of capsicums
Citrus corner
all in rows
Indoor abundance

/ July 29, 2015I’m sure you and your plants will greatly enjoy the limery. Do you think it will serve about the same function as your greenhouse did, before? I never did have a greenhouse, but my spouse and I recently moved into a house that came with a “solarium” attached, and this winter I used it for the first time to start my hot-weather plants much earlier than usual. It worked brilliantly. 5 extra weeks of harvests make such a difference in our short Canadian summer!

Cheers! Bloody well done.oi oi oi! 😀

/ July 29, 2015It’s something I have wanted for many years, but somehow I seemed to difficult to do until this year. Really, once we found a builder who understood the project, it was all quite straightforward. I’m sure my output of food is going to increase hugely because of this space… think of all the seed trays I’ll be able to fit on those windowsills in the spring!
