    Thanks again to Lyn for sending me the 

    Lychnis coronaria - dusty miller (rose campion) seeds

    I was told so sow in March/April time but read somewhere that they can be started in Jan-March. So I did a test sowing (2 pots same conditions) one of the pots germinated in 3 days, the other still has no signs of life 3 weeks later. Heres a pic I took today. As you can see they are still very small (I dont have a giant finger) and not at all leggy & only just grown their second leaf (or first true leaf).

     I think I am going to have to sow a new batch in about 2 weeks. 

    Looks like I may have spoke to soon, I checked these this morning and I now have 8 shoots sprouting. Nature is a strange beast that 4 new ones would sprout several weeks after they were sown and several weeks after the others in the same pot and conditions. I'm thrilled..

    Joyce m, I would like some parsley, would you like a fuchsia for your basket. It will flower this year. If you have any preferences, let me know as I have about 40 different ones



    I will send you a private message tomorrow when I am on main computer.

    Ps, I haven't forgotten Bev, I am potting on this week.
