Last chance saloon for old courgettes today:-
Black Beauty
Mikinos
Tristan
Defender
Alfresco
Astia
Most packets had 8-10 seeds so I've sown the lot. With my luck, I'll have 60 courgette plants looking for homes...........or I may have none.
I sowed several varieties of wallflower. Why is it that on my out of date wallflower packets they say sow in June and July but on the more modern pkts of the same variety the say to sow April/May.
Also sowed some red and green basil.
I planted out my Cavolo Nero plants, then sowed Gortahock and Delaway Cabbage seeds. Transplanted some strawberry plants.
Found space for 2 more rows of parsnips then sown another sprinkle of French breakfast radishes.
Some more sowings this afternoon
Beth alpha cucs
Spinach Medania and Perpetual
Land cress and Lambs lettuce
Resowed some Sunstripe courgettes since there's been no sign of life from my first sowing.
Also sowed some Tall Scotch Prize french marigolds and some Tithonia (Mexican sunflower). Never grown tithonia before so very excited by these!
I sowed the 9 star perennial broccoli (restrained myself after sowing three and managed to not sow more!), some climbing beans (black seed, Cherokee trails of tears or something?)
Only sown one thing today.
Tromboncino
I couldn’t go a year without my trombo .
Just to clarify I’ve managed not to grow any chillies this year!
I direct sowed outside some nasturtium "jewel" mix.
