Hi Mangey
Please could you give me the name of the climbing French beans you grew? I would be really interested.

Last year I grew runner beans, ordinary French beans (not terribly successfully), tomatoes, herbs and rocket. I was so fed up with paying the high price of rocket in the shops that I decided to grow it. My tip would be to sow a new row every week, this means that you will have a constant supply throughout the summer.

I am thinking of growing courgettes in pots this year. Has anyone tried this?
