First tomatoes are up, peppers are growing fast, and some new growth on the overwintered Red Marconi sweet pepper that I pruned and fertilized.

A Bunch Of Grapes
There is certainly a joy living near one of the most famous wine growing areas in the world. A trip to the vineyards is certainly one of them.
There are a number of wineries where my wife and feel like home at. I have got to know a number of wine makers over the years and have been given the opportunity to photograph a few vineyards unfettered.

Winter's the best time to prune grapevines! Dormant vines are less stressed by cuts & it's easier to see the structure for precise pruning. This encourages healthy growth & better fruit in spring! #grapevine #pruning #winter #gardening #wine

his year, a couple of years after planting some cutting, got five grapes! five! small sweet and delicious.
To avoid the council's nosing - they come about once in a while to check that the plots are cultivated, or else is eviction, the grapevine will do the job perfectly; in a few years lol!
Today and yesterday have been busy repairing a few leaks in the greenhouse, refitting the external greenhouse, digging here and there, moving a lot of junk to be recycled, having a break and a cigarette; saw a dragonfly today, size some 3in at a guess as it didn't stop; the usual sparrowsects (as in sus-pects) feeding, found one of the feeders on the ground and empty. Also installed a section of metal net in a hole in the hedge right below the feeder, where feral cats waited for unweary birds to land. Few months ago, found a heap of pigeon feathers; since then a single pigeon shows up and hangs on a while, probably the partner.
Weather has been fine with some rain, hardly any wind and warm enough. More tomorrow.

Phew! Morning at the plot, pulled up the grapes and separated them to be replanted singly at about an equal distance. Had four originally, now have 14, and a few still to go in.
Otherwise so far so good.

My wine grapes are 20 feet up in a pine tree!
No idea what they are, red to purple tight clusters large grapes. The original vine died, this cutting persists but it has one small stem of leaves at eye level that hasn't died and the rest is up in the tree. They rarely get sweet before it freezes or wildlife eats them.

This whole house was absolutely covered in grape vines
Yesterday was #VolcanoThursday & the picture is again from the #volcanic island #Lanzarote. Can you see the semicircles made of #rocks? Each hosts a #grapevine. Here a layer of volcanic ash collects can store humidity& protects the plants from the wind.
