Hello from South Hams

[Lynda Kelly]

Hi, love this group and I am sure we will learn a lot! My partner and I have 1.65acres near Aveton Gifford. We mostly grow herbs but have purchased some wild flower seeds from the Devon Wildlife Trust project to improve the biodiversity along the Avon Valley. when would be the best time to sow them? Also last year we were blown away by the number of Bees we had on our Borage plants? so we have grow more and want to encourage others to grow them too. Happy Sunday x

Hi Lynda, Bees certainly love borage. I grew it in my garden last year and it was a joy. We mostly do autumn sowing but if you have bare ground at the moment, and can provide some moisture, I'd consider getting your seed on now. Look forward to catching up with you later in the year. Best wishes, Lynne
