Good choice of flowers and veggies. My favourite its the parsley which covers everything.

There was a lot more but it gets used nearly in every dish and we give it to friends as well, fresh parsley tastes so much better than shop-bought. :)

Excellent variety of plants and veg Farah! :goodpost:

Whats the succulent plant in the top row of pics on the right side and is it in the ground or in a pot?? Looks like a Crassula Ovata and will it survive outside??

Googled some images of the Crassula Ovata up and
it looks most like the Bronze Statue, in sha Allah it should
be fine during summer, the patch of ground its in gets
a fair bit of sunshine. Over winter might be another story
though. It's really beautiful and healthy I would definitley
recommend growing it somewhere showy.
