The last couple of years have given us a little practice at growing our own and this year is no different. We planted most of our seeds for assorted peppers, tomatoes, phlox, marigolds and sunflowers along with some sprouted garlic segments back in March. Since then we've had lots of gorgeous sunshine accompanied by some showers, the perfect conditions for growing...and our little plants have LOVED it!!
They've grown so quickly and everything has been moved into bigger pots this week. The peppers have emerged from the greenhouse and have found a new home in a much larger pot. They have begun to flower and we're expecting to see the beginning of the peppers growing soon. Our tomatoes have been following their example and have burst into bloom; our eldest's plant is also sporting the first tomato of the year! She already has plans for cheese and tomato sandwiches once it has grown and ripened :)
Everything is growing well in our garden this Summer and I'm sure a lot of it has been down to the beautiful weather we've been treated to over the last couple of months. My two terrors have been shooting up too!
I am late at planting and only started last month but my aubergine needs to be transferred now too. Your plants looks lush! #AlphabetPhoto
ReplyDeleteThank you, and good luck with your growing :) x
DeleteIt sounds fantastic. I am terrible at growing things and always manage to kill off the plants we do have. Oops! Enjoy eating your very own home grown produce :) #alphabetphoto
ReplyDeleteYou're doing so well with your growing! We had all these big plans and we've done absolutely nothing. Will be amazing to eat home grown! Thanks for sharing with #alphabetphoto
ReplyDeleteThank you :) The kids are so exciting seeing them grow x
DeleteI am so bad at growing from seed, I forget to water them and they grow all tall and then fall over, yours are looking very healthy and hopefully you will have some great produce soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm awful at remembering too...thankfully my two are always keen to keep them well hydrated else I'm not sure they'd be looking so healthy ;) x
