I must admit, Spring really did jump on us this year. The last 3 weeks we thought it had forgotten about us, and so we weren't very motivated to get a move on, then 2 days ago - Spring - Just like that!
I jumped on the bandwagon and filled up my Jiffy Grower with some new hopefuls for our beds:
This is how they look this morning. I leave them in our bathroom over night as it seems to be the warmest room in the house.
The only section of this Jiffy that bothers me is this:
Is that normal - asks the novice gardner? I am sure it is my passion-flower seeds which did this to me earlier on in the year, now I am wondering if this is just what they do?
Last time we threw the seeds out, should we do that again?
Anyway in this Jiffy we have:
Cherry Tomatoes
Kohlrabi
Chilli
Fennel
Zucchetti
Echinacea
Passion Flower
St. Johns' Wort
Lavender
Dill
Peppermint
Parsley
Lemon Balm
Sage
Rosemary
Basil
In the top image, you can see a new set of very cool veg and fruit that arrived today.
We will be setting that Jiffy up a little later.
As I chat with you, Stefan is out and about fetching some wood for our first bed.
We will be staggering our beds as to be quite frank, they will be costing a small fortune to set up.
More about that in the next post.
Have a wonderful, industrious, spring day.
