HARVESTING CONTAINER POTATOES, Picking Elderflower & Edimental Borders | Dora's Allotment VLOG #10 🌸
Hello 👋🏻
Join me as I take a wander into our local woods to forage some elderflower to make cordial. I also harvest the first of this year's container potatoes, plus lots of greens, and show you around my edimental border at home.
I've also discovered a nifty trick to tie in my tomatoes which I share with you.
Big thanks for watching, liking, commenting and subscribing, see you soon! 💚

Bless you Dora, that was a very relaxing video, hoping you're feeling better soon, there seems to be a lot of Covid around again at the moment. Elderflower cordial is a seasonal treat and so refreshing in this hot weather, good to add to Prosecco too, freshly harvested Charlotte potatoes too such a treat and always exciting to reveal your first crop ! The warm evening light on the stone walls of your house is beautiful !

Thank you George! I do have allium sphaerocephalon in another border and they look more like lollipops at the moment but these are tall mysterious spikes 😅 have a lovely weekend!
Hi Dora how do you make mint tea and does it have to be a particular type of mint ? Thanks

Hello 👋🏻 I just cut some fresh mint and pop it in a mug with boiling water - job done and it’s perfect. You can use different types of mint, it doesn’t have to be one in particular. Enjoy!

@@doras.allotment Peppermint tea was very unusual at first but very nice to drink i added a little bit of lemon and honey and it was very nice this could be a game changer tbh

@@aarontaylor3768 pleased to hear you enjoyed! I agree about it being a bit odd to start but it’s rather enjoyable and a refreshing alternative to the classic tea. Good idea with the honey and lemon
