Florence Fennel!

A quick comparison with Google  images and I do believe I have Florence Fennel growing!

Okay so it's still a way from the table yet but its a start...  And i'ts not in  a plastic pot.  

The Family

  

Here's a small part of Paty-the-maid's extended family ' helping me' in the garden and displaying part of the QS recycling programme.  Helping is a bit of a misnomer I suppose as everything takes twice as long when the kids join in, but they're sweet, they  have fun and enjoy giggling hysterically at my Spanish.  

And here's the smallest member, Adriana with a juvenile crimson King basil.

Aaaaaaaaaah - how cute is that?!
