My Seedlings

17 comments


I love this time of year when after you have sowed your seeds in trays or pots etc they start to come through and will hopefully thrive and blossom to give colour throughout the year.

A variety of pots and trays planted up in the Greenhouse

Trays of seeds saved from last years plants

Lupins grown from seed from a friend in the Netherlands and Dwarf sunflowers from last years plants

Runner beans in the end tray coming through

Flower seedlings coming through in the spare guttering

Hope I get plenty of garden colour this year after the wet start :-)

I agree Richard, it is great and even more so when one has saved the seed, so therefore some money as well, they look to be doing well for you, lets hope they continue so...

I sowed lots of seeds this year..labelled them all..then sprayed with water..silly me had used a felt pen and all the labels are clear now..so its..a lucky dip? lol Recognise some..others...who knows! :)

I have done that in the past Pixi I have a permanent marker now and make my labels from cut up milk containers. I also found that you can write on them with soft pencil and they don't wash off..you can rub them out and use them again....lol...
