Has anyone planted a decorative garden only with edibles?
I usually get a few sunflowers come up in the veg area, but nothing really edible, lots of datura.

Latest moan from you and me 2026
A bus stop near me has been painted, well there is quite a large pothole and this has been painted over. Instead of the words bus stop it should read large pothole.
