What a difference a few weeks and some recent good weather has made to the plot. I started planted and sowing just over a month ago and so far everything is doing well.
The onions Sturon all have several inches of leaves and, apart from a handful, all the potatoes are now visible. Even the carrots Short and Sweet, which I only sowed a couple of weeks ago, are now appearing.
All the annual flower seeds I sowed are showing, except the nasturtiums Tom Thumb which I only sowed early last week. Cosmos corner has lots of seedlings, as has the area where I sowed the sunflowers. The candytuft and cornflowers have taken longer to germinate and show but are now doing so. There are lots of pot marigolds Flighty’s Favourites seedlings now covering much of the main flower patch. These orange ones I grow back in 2015.
It’s always pleasing, and a relief, when planting and sowing flowers and vegetables direct to see them appear then start growing.
Have a good week, and take care!
