Our little garden has been growing so well. Every morning I go inspect the damp soil for signs of life. Our star seeds this week have been the radish (first to pop up), watermelon and Basil. Go you little seeds! Just don't be scared when a big clumsy dog paw squishes you a little. More updates next week when I can hopefully plant my chilli, capsicum & tomato seedlings.
Oh! I almost forgot to mention the flowers. I planted a variety of flowers sort of haphazardly beside the garden path, and thought in theory it is going to look beautiful, a bright arrangement of colour lining the path. In reality I watched as Frankie bounded all over the patch, balls bounced, hoses got thrown on top & Jake (and I) forgetfully stomped all over the struggling seeds. I was beginning to think that it was a bit of a lost cause planting them there…
Suddenly on a rainy morning I saw what I first thought was a weed poking through, and then realised that it was my flowers popping out of the soil! All neatly in a straight wobbly line! Tough seeds!
