Got a shock today!!!

9 comments


Well, I was just watering my plants in my greenhouse and I nearly fell over!!!! What? I hear you all cry? Whatever was the matter? Was there some lil’ green alien hiding in there?

Nooooo, nothing that scary!!! It was just some seeds I planted last month and they had, wait for it…….. Germinated!!!!!

I was soooooooo shocked!! After reading up on these seeds, I was all prepared to not see anything for 2 years! But nooooo, they had to give me a heart attack and pop their lil’ heads up, all 25 of them!!!! Eeeeeek! I need to give them homes!!!! (well, one day anyway, lol!!!)

What were they? Oh, sorry, did I not mention that? Oh, well in that case, they were Peony seeds……….

I hate to put a damper on things Craftnutter but those don't look like Peony seedings to me... what did the actual seed look like?

I'm glad they grew whatever they are. It's exciting.

Do you know, I was laying awake last night, wondering the same thing. It's just impossible to be peony, for the time scale alone. Plus the fact that peony seeds tend to grow roots first, rather than little shoots.

Soooooo, I am disappointed. I don't think they could have been peony seeds. I don't know what they are tho', so I'll carry on looking after them, and see what they turn out to be!!

Thanks for helping me realise I've not just become insane! lol!!
