Anyone else loathe weeding? The one thing about the hot weather is the grass barely needs to be cut but the weeds are out of control.

Get a hoe. Ten minutes once a week and you don’t need to to get on your knees.

Also get a burner so you can clear the weeds growing between slabs and blocks with pulling up the matrix between them. Lidl usually sell this stuff for peanuts.
The only job worth spending more than ten minutes on is dead heading and pruning and that is very zen.
I’ve got no veg this year apart from chilli’s that really helps keep the work down.

This 'beauty' is from my sister in laws garden. We transplanted the rose from the mother-in-law's garden when she died to the sister-in-laws garden (before selling the house) , and every year she cuts some roses and delivers them for the wife....as a little remembrance of their mum

My misus has grown black tomatoes, I don't fancy trying them, can't get my head round food with unusual colours.

Spuds 'Jazzy' arrived today ready to plant for Xmas dinner.
I grow those, plant them in the spring though. Normally very high yield and store well. Not quite as large in size due to the dry weather, but got loads of them again this year. Also grow Marfona (but not this year) which I think are the best for baking.

I've never grown them before, hoping for a big yield - nothing better than homegrown produce.
Going to try Marfona next year (note on drive made to remind me), not grown those.

Early days, but look like a herb, mint or sage?

I was thinking mint too maybe, but no minty smell (yet)

I Google Lensed it and it came back with the same.! Pretty sure it’s not that!Plantnet thinks it is Orange-ball-tree
I’d in about 2 days it’s taken over that pot it’s mint.
If the leaves have a bit of a velvety texture it’s likely sage.

It has been growing fairly slowly, so I guess not mint. It doesn't smell like sage either, but does look a bit like it. The top leaves are a little greyish compared to the ones beneath.I Google Lensed it and it came back with the same.! Pretty sure it’s not that!

Hmm...I'll call it Trump-Gonadias for now.
edit: might be Lemon Verbena
