Blooming Lovely

Remember the Marigold seeds I planted ?
Well look at them now.
Aren't they looking fabulous ?
Lost a few due to the cats sitting on them but all in all I am pleased with them.
Not sure what the other seeds were in with them but they are growing well so I guess we will find out soon enough LOL

How naughty have I been in not updating my blog ?
I have been so busy I just never seem to had chance.
No excuse I know.
I have so many photos and updates to add.
Sweet peas have really started to take off now so photo's of them to come.
Be back shortly with a huge update on the garden :O)

Woohooo my sweet peas arrived.
I was a little surprised when all 80 sweetpeas turned up in one 3 inch pot but upon removing them I did see the roots looked pretty good.
I had already potted on a few of them before I remembered to take a photo LOL
Typical of me.
These are the Giant Spencer Waved Sweet Peas.
Once in full bloom the smell should be amazing.



Thank you to Grows on you members for the idea of paper pots LOL
It is going to save me a fortune on pots and means I can put them straight into the ground.



Ran out of newspaper so used the toilet roll inners I had been saving ;O)
Again thank you to Grows on you members for this idea.

Just another few pics of the boys.

Felix is watching the tadpoles.
Quite funny to watch him chasing them around.
He can't get to them due to the wire net guard under the weeds LOL


I wanted to get a shot of the sunflowers that were started from seed on my sons windowsill but do you think Felix would move ?
All he kept doing was looking at me as if to say 'What do you want now ?' LOL


This is one of my pussy cats 'Robin' wondering what all these grasses are.
They are growing all over the garden in varying sizes.
Whilst I don't mind a few of them they are a serious pain in the backside LOL
Edit- I now know the grasses to be creeping sedge.

I am absolutely shattered and aching like mad but boy does it feel good to have accomplished something.
Wanted to get this posted before I take my painkillers and forget LOL

This is the section I wanted to work on today and get ready.



Helped by my ever faithful guard cat this part is ready for planting.
Hoping the sweet peas hubby won for me on ebay arrive tomorrow.
80 plants woohooooo :O)


This is currently the tidiest part of my whole garden LOL
