Greenhouse and Seeds

3rd of Feb

Quite cold today but the sun was shining in the afternoon just long enough for me to go and tidy up the Greenhouse , its was nearly 60 in the Greenhouse so okay for working in .Not sure how many Fucshia have survived over the winter .
I started off some Rudbeckia seeds this afternoon ( Prairie Sun ) , grew them in 2006 and they were really nice , think there were roughly 20 seeds in the pkt which will just be fine for along the back of the fence . I want the border really bright hot colours this year .
6th of Feb
Lovely sunny day
I bought bulbs out of Poundland a couple of weeks ago and left them hanging in a bag in the kitchen , big mistake !! the heat of the kitchen had started them growing , I took them out to the Greenhouse today and put them into polystyrene disposable cups ive covered them really well with compost so im hoping the cold Greenhouse will slow down the growth without killing them .
I got a bit of tidying up done in the back and front garden , looks so much better , the ground is so wet .

Hi there, thanks for the comment on 72Sqm. You are the first to make one. You garden looks a like a patch of paradise. I hope the Rudbeckia grow well for you..
