Sowing and Growing on

Since 23 March I have been sowing seeds and growing on.  It is wonderful to see life thriving right in front of me!  Courgettes, nasturtiums, runner beans and french beans and peas and white borage have been hardening off outside during the day.  At night they come in to the conservatory to keep sheltered from the weather, slugs and snails and other creepy crawlies.

They have grown so quickly!

This nasturtium is called Bloody Mary!  I can't wait to see it when in flower.  I've been sowing and growing many other things too.  I will show them another time.

    So wonderful to see life growing this way. I'm still building raised beds but I've got carrot greens growing inside for a salad and a celery experiment in the works. Happy Growing!

    What a beautiful collection you have there! They all look so green and healthy. I will look forward to seeing these when you have planted them and they continue to grow. Your efforts will be well rewarded I'm sure!

    Your little plants look really healthy Simone. I love nasturtiums for their rambling cheeriness amongst the other plants and especially in a hanging basket:)
