Plant Kit Update

Remeber back in June my friend bought me a sunflower and a chilli plant kit? Here's an update on how they are getting on.

Chillies

They are so happy! I either have a knack for chillies or they are super easy to grow. Probably the latter.

You can even see the little chillies starting to grow. I'm so pleased with these.

Sunflowers

I'm so embarrased about these :/ They didn't survive a weekend we spent away at a festival and have been looking rather grey and ill since then. I hoped they might come back to life but they're getting worse. 

Luckily I didn't plant all the seeds in the kit so I have a second chance to redeem myself.

Plant Kits

For my birthday (yes, I know my birthday was ages ago but it's been spreading itself out this year!) my friend bought me two plant kits. The first is sunflowers - a mini variety - and it comes in the most beautiful little yellow bucket:

The other is from the pocket garden range - some chillies. The other chillies are doing so well so fingers crossed for these ones too.

It's raining, windy and grey on the balcony right now. I've been away since Thursday so I want to go out and see what's happening but I can't face the weather so I am snuggled up inside with the laptop. At least the plant kits mean I can have a little gardening fix. And Gardener's World on iPlayer. My b/f thinks I am old before my time, but I love it! You learn so much!


I hope everyone had a lovely weekend.
