    Evidently I'm about a month behind some, but I HAVE A FLOWER!!!! *does little celebration wiggle* Lots of lessons learned from my spring-sown trial ahead of my autumn-sown wedding crop for next year but I'm really pleased with myself. image Thanks all, but esp David for advice- am standing by for autumn instructions!

    It's a good job I knew what you meant and aren't easily offended imageimage I'll wake you in Autumn don't worry, you go and hibernate until then image

    Just one question before you go.....the seeds that will eventually come from my Eagle SPs, should I keep them and use them next year or am I better buying new?

  • Oh yes, they will keep for a couple of years at least. Kept in an airtight tin in the garage, probably longer.

    Now I'm going to watch Brazil get another drubbing. image

    Hehe, thanks for translating OL, I thought my news was interesting anyway!image David before you hibernate could you advise a shopping list so I can be ready for the off come autumn? Thank you. Enjoy the footy. Ooh and can seeds be used after they've been thru the wash and tumble drier in your jacket pocket? :/
