What with spring in the air, or wind and rain if you live in the UK. I decided it was time to make a start on growing a few plants for my garden, and this year I thought I do something a little different. I have bought two potluck bags of mixed seeds from ebay, one bag contained flowers whilst the other is veg (I tell you about them in my next blog :).
The flower seeds were a mix of the usual pansies, sweet peas and marigolds. Plus a few surprises which included aster and chrysanthemum both of which I have never grown, so I am quite excited to see what pops up out the soil.
I've started the pansy, sweet pea, lobelia, nasturtium, aster, rudbeckia, mini sunflower, marigold in pots on the windowsill. The rest I will put straight in the garden or in pots when the weather perks up :)
I put three sets of seeds in one tray using two extra long plant label sticks as dividers. Window space in my house is somewhat limited!
