BABY DINOSAURS ???
By Terratoonie

I'm half way through planting a rosemary bush, recently purchased, and found these granules/eggs? in the compost around the roots in the pot.
Not seen these before !!!
Thanks.

Okay ... thanks. I didn't want to plant eggs of some sort.
When I squash them with my finger nails they are sort of damp inside ... does that sound right for fertiliser granules please ?

Looks like slow release firtilizer!

That's a relief ... I'd just not come across any like that, and was concerned they might be insect eggs ... or something worse... LOL.

Yeah fertiliser stuff is gooey in middle which makes it even more confusing. UK insect eggs tend to be much smaller and clear/white.

Thanks Kildermorie and Gingerboy ...
Kind of you to reply so promptly.
Much appreciated :o)))

Osmocote, a slow release general fertiliser, works for at least six months and is activated by temperature so that the plants don't get over fertilised.......clever stuff I think.

Hi Pam ..
Watch this space ...
... the eggs will take a while to incubate ;o)
17 May, 2012
Is Crocus helping with the incubation.....I can't see Truffle sitting still long enough!
17 May, 2012
It will take quite a long while ...
... not easy with these extinct species ....
