Thankyou Lorna & Loulou

They are seeds from Thomas & Morgan. The reason I got those is that the allotment we took over as most of you might remember hasn't been used to grow anything for years. So I thought this year we will see how things go with seeds a bit more reliable and go from there. :)

woolies are doing buy 1 get 1 free on all the seeds and plants and I think that includes fruit trees as well ;D

Ooooh dinner at yours in a few months then is it Jill?!

I've got to get my pumpkin seeds yet. I'm tempted by the Atlantic Giant too.

I seem to buying alot of  seeds that produce red veg.  Hmmm I'm not sure why,must be the artistic streak in me.

How is your allotment coming along?

I don't know about that yet Heldi lol

Can't dig over the soil at the moment as it is rock hard. Had rain fo a couple of days a few weeks ago then we had that hard frost for 2 weeks which means we can't get a spade or anything else near to the soil. The compost is doing well though and still rotting down nicely. :)

When I get the chance I will post some new pics up of it before everything starts growing again in spring. :)

My first lettuce ( the Lake Land seeds ) are poking there heads above the soil though. I only sowed them on Friday. :o :)

All I can say is....

HAPPY GROWING!
