New Year News
I hope every one like us had a great Christmas and New Year.
Yesterday I checked the greenhouse, first time since before Christmas, what a surprise, having read about sowing seeds in Autumn I did a tray of seeds, taken from my own sweet Peas in the front garden, to my surprise they have germinated well and are now one and half inches tall and look really strong. This is the first time I have  tried this, wish I had also done the Marigolds and Petunia, still a lesson learned.
The Roses are are all sprouting, I guess if we have a really cold spell it will set them back. Strangely  the Daffs and Tulips are not as advanced as usual, still plenty of time for these.
