Today’s Seedling Pottings

I make the same basic error every year that takes over my life for about 10 weeks. Plant up a few seed trays and end up with hundreds of seedlings and then spend days potting them on and weeks carrying them in and out at night, watering, re-potting until they are big enough. I have spent the whole day today doing them and got through the different Cosmos, some Cynoglossum and some Nigella. Loads of Nigella, Ammi, Stocks, more Cynoglossum, still to do. I give most of them to a local charity plant sale in June and just keep enough for the garden. Also potted out some others into final places/pots- Forget Me Nots, Foxgloves, Angelica Gigas, Verbena Bonariensis (all grown late last summer) and Cornflowers. Did some weeding and digging over. I think I need another fortnight every day to properly sort the garden out. My thing last year and this is I am not buying plants, just growing from seeds that I either collected last year or swopped with friends. So far so good.
It’s so nice to be outside all day in the garden.
