germinating basil plants.

In the absence of anything real to post about this morning, I think I’ll pop a picture of up my lovely germinating basil plants. They’re not the only thing we’ve got going – also rhubarb, parsley, tomatillos, fennel, chervil, carrots and borage – but they are the one I’m most excited about.

garden updates (and seeds, stage 3).

Casual Spray n Wipe in the background …

I bought some seed trays today, lined them with newspaper and filled them with potting mix (yes I know, naughty, naughty but I’ve really not had any problems using the wrong mixes before).
