Seed sowing and corm planting

Eeeek - it's well over a week since I made my resolution and because there was no nursery this week I haven't found any time to write with my little helper around. There are no pictures of the garden either because the weather has been awful!

I ordered some seeds ready to sow and they only came yesterday, so we (my little helper and I) have been busy in the greenhouse trying to keep dry this morning. We also put some of Grandma's 'special seeds' into big pots ready for Aunty's wedding in the summer - I'm scared I'll get these wrong though - 50 Acidanthera is a big responsibility!

My seeds that finally arrived are:
Sweet Pea 'King Size Navy Blue', 'White Supreme' and 'Apple Blossom'.
Cornflower 'Polka Dot Mixed', Stock 'Giant Perfection Mixed' and 'Appleblossom'

The Stock are in and one packet of the King Size Navy Blue. The other sweet peas will have to wait until I either have some more pots the right size, or until I get some canes up for them. The Cornflowers will go out as soon as I have weeded the patch where they will grow (hopefully at the weekend when my helpers are either sleeping or playing with daddy).

Resolutions!

As it has been well over a year since my last entry on here I need to decide whether to continue with the 'blog' or not! I always love reading other blogs and never manage to write my own.


So I'm giving myself a month and I'm going to endeavour to blog at least once a week (well that's the theory). If I have succeeded then I will carry on, if not - well I'm sure the number of entries will speak for itself.


There are quite a few projects I want/need to get started on and it would be lovely to document these. I want to grow flowers for my sister's wedding, keep up with the running that I have started again, sew more pretty clothes for my daughter, make things for my son (I didn't even know he was on the way when I last blogged!), enjoy the rest of my maternity leave and above all make it count!!!!!


So here goes...
