New plants, bees and potatoes

Bee with full pollen sacks

Coming very close to the end of the early potatoes. This was the biggest one so far. 

New plants from Tullynally.

Last week's Gardener's World had a slug deterring tip from Hosta growers. Boil 2 cloves garlic in 2 pints water and use 1tbs of the solution in 5 pints water. Spray on plants every two weeks. I've tried it on lots of flowers and veg now, will see what happens.
