Sweet peas! I have sweet peas germinating

Funnily enough so do I,  but not intentionally,  they're in a spread tub of saved seed that must have got damp. I must get round to pricking them out.  You see, they'll be the bet sweet peas I've ever grown but never able to be repeated

Lots of my sweet peas did that last year. All started sprouting in their pods. So I just planted the whole thing and they grew fine.

My "subscriber" seeds arrived today and have been sown. My seeds were:-
Aquilegia viridiflora "Chocolate Soldier"
Pansy "Swiss Giants mixed"
Laurentia "Pink Stars"
Antirrhinum "Admiral Pink"
Sweet peas (Forgotten the variety and the seed packet is in the GH and I'm not there).

Nice selection. I had to look up the pink star. That’s pretty.

Last month's cornflowers and Ammi are still alive, but the others didn't germinate

For October I've chosen:

Cornflower "The Bride"
Sweet Peas "Lilac Ripple", "High Scent", "Wings" and "Antique Fantasy".

Is this cheating?

I'll sow them tomorrow.

Definitely not cheating. You can never have to many sweet peas.

If we said it was cheating would you care?

Dear G&G floral project
  It is with great sadness that I must cancel my subscription to your lovely monthly flower seed collections.
Due to unforeseen circumstances I can no longer sow seeds in a safe environment ( the seeds not me   ) .
It’s been great fun while it lasted. Hope the rest of your customers have a wonderful head start to your flower growing season.
Kind regards SC 





****ing weather    .

Dear Small chilli,

I regret to inform you that, since you signed up for a year at the start of this project, cancellations are not accepted mid-year.
May I suggest that you keep the seeds until your environment has improved and have a big sowing session then.
All of our seeds can be sown at a later date.

Best wishes from all at the G&G Floral Project
