potatoes have lots of leafy growth, I hope there are some spuds down there somewhere!

Wow Gaz, all looks great, great idea with the potatoes, I think we should call the "spud towers"

Cheers Simo, seemed like a good use of the pavers until I get around to, well paving with them. I think it will be ok in the wetter months, but will probably be hard to keep moist in summer.

Nice work Gaz :thumb: Very productive back yard you have going there. Great way to use the spare bricks too. Peas are going great guns here too. Nothing better than eating a few while in the garden and the kids love them. I didn't know you could grow those black cans in the garden :confused:

Your peas look nice and healthy, no rust. Are they the Oregon ones that seem to have far better resitance to it?
