Bit's & Bob's ...

Good Morning!

Today's post is a collection of photographs that I have taken over the past week that I wanted to share with you. There isn't a particular theme, they are just random snaps that I wanted to share with you all.

First up the Saxifraga 'Red' which has produced one beautiful little bloom.

Remember the Fuchsia cuttings that I took a few weeks ago? Well they all successfully rooted and it was time to pot them up into their own individual pots!

I also had 6 Lewisia plants that I couldn't decide what to do with so I potted them up and displayed them outside the GH.

Some seeds I sowed a fortnight ago (including some 'Cucamelon' last week) have all started germinating.

The Tomatoes are coming on leaps & bounds ...

The Sweet Pea's are getting stronger too, you can tell which are the Autumn ones compared to the Spring and I even have the first Sweet Pea bloom of 2014!

Finally the Amaryllis I bought back in the Autumn of last year decided to bloom for the second time last week and it was a joy to see!

Thanks for stopping by, I shall be back later in the week with how I have updated the front garden for Summer!

HAPPY GROWING!

Some More Catching Up ...

Good Morning!

Today's post is a bit of a follow on from the previous one, I've had quite a few little jobs to do over the past week or so which means lots of photo's! lol First off I decided to add to my little teractotta pot collection with some Primula's, Dianthus and Saxifraga.

Here's a little peek at how the stand looks at the moment however there will probably be a little re-shuffle with some more pots going on the top replacing the Iris, Lavender and Skimmia.

A couple of weeks ago I received a voucher in the post for 50% off any plant at a nearby Garden Centre. Well I couldn't ignore it could I so I went and bought an Acer (Phoenix) as every small garden should have one.

Whilst making the planted up pots at work last week I spotted these cute little pots that were perfect for these two plants I'd also had my eye on. Can you tell that me working in a Plant Nursery is dangerous!

And lastly my Dahlia Tubers are FINALLY starting to do something, I was starting to give up hope! So far it's only 1 of each variety that's showing signs of life but hopefully the remaining two will pick up soon, they're certainly taking their time!

Thanks for stopping by,

HAPPY GROWING!
