Potatoes

With my vegetable patch given over to shallots, runner beans and Japanese onions, this summer I've been experimenting with containers: radish in shallow plastic troughs, dwarf beans in hanging baskets, courgettes and dill in broken buckets, and potatoes in an old rubbish bin, scrubbed clean and half filled with soil and compost.

So far, so good - but the proof is in the digging up.
