I am so happy that back in Feb my lovely daughter gave me some succulents and 'flavours of mexico' seeds.
Another friend gave me a cactus cutting and a half dead Christmas cactus...
Now from the 'mexico' seeds I have pots of basil, about 20 chilli seedlings, a big pot of coriander that made a lovely gift. ..onions and tomatoes in the garden.
Then after lockdown I couldn't get any more seeds so raided the kitchen cupboard where left over from a winter baking frenzy I found allspice, cardomum and caraway.
They have all come up! If I can't get compost I sneak out to the nearby field and steal molehills. .
In the back of the cupboard I found some sprouted potatoes and onion...so in they went to the raised bed in the garden left by a previous tenant...along with radish seeds and peas and carrots after I finally made it to a shop...
Today I planted a blackcurrant plant and put out some containers of stuff that had gone wild inside..and planted sage and parsley seeds outside. Rosemary thyme and oregano and dill inside.
It's really keeping me sane....and busy...
Anyone else discovered the joy of gardening during lockdown? It's all new for me..
