Growing Up

I think I may be growing up- just a little- as I am really beginning to enjoy gardening.
I am a bit rubbish at it, so I get very excited when things begin to grow!


                                                 The first poppy has just burst forth
.

My seedlings are appearing in the raised bed I set up-these are rocket and radishes. No sign of the onions or carrots yet!


You can't see my dogs footprints from this angle!

  3. Ooh what a lovely vegetable patch! It's very tidy! My garden is a right ramshackle collection of bits and bobs but hopefully we'll have some flowers and vegetables sometime soon :) protecting everything from the dog is a full time job in itself, isn't it?

  4. Aha, sure sign lol! My daughter always hated gardening but only 2 yrs after moving out, she is planting stuff. Happens to most of us it would seem.

  5. It's definitely addictive, I love seeing the things I plant grow! Our carrots are only just showing now, really didn't want to grow this year for some reason! Love the raised bed you have! :) x

  6. I adore poppies, they're one of my favourite flowers. Yours are gorgeous! And I'm very impressed with your vegetable patch - I've never progressed beyond blackberries!

    In fact I'll second Erika - if you want to get in some more practice, feel free to come and sort my garden out! ;)
