My day started very frosty, and ended the same. The trees are glistening white and I much prefer that to snow. I decided to head out with the dogs to take photos and survey the ground around the pond to see where the warmth melts the frost first - part of getting to know a new garden, right?
I finished my uni essay yesterday, so today is my first work-less, no uni day leaving me free to play as I wish! I decided that clearing away Christmas HAD to happen before I found all my seeds, compost, trays and labels, or it is quite possible it never will happen at all and I'll have Christmas decs up in August still.
I got it done, and sowed 30 odd types of seeds, some shared in other posts already. It's the first seeds of 2025! I found a seed bag I had saved from Turkey - a fascinating tree with long bean-looking pods. I sowed some in a pot and bagged it. You never know
I've also sown some Shishito peppers. My god I've missed them peppers. Small and delicious cooked on the barbeque whole. Something to dream about and yearn for the summer
