Sowing seeds

SEEDS

 These seeds were a thoughtful gift from Loveday, given instead of a bunch of flowers. A lovely idea and one that I will try to remember in future when I visit keen gardeners.
The Dill and Borage would look lovely in a pot on the balcony where the breeze would cause movement in their tall colours.
I already have a pot of chives, the original plants given to me by friend Madelaine years ago. Every time I snip them to use on potatoes or in salads I think of her. These seeds will go into a patch of garden and be allowed to flower.
The Bergamot is a new one to me, I've never used it, but it's so colourful I'm tempted to put it in the garden too rather than the veg patch.

A treat to myself to make my first year here growing veg a little easier. Must confessed I was seduced by the tin ...

Sarah Raven's website is a delight of colour and healthy vegetables. I love the way she gardens in a dress too, with a pinny, and am determined to adopt this idea as I too love a dress. Maybe I could make a pinny now that I have a sewing machine.
