I was pleased to see that most of my seeds in the new raised garden have germinated - japanese bunching onions, two types of carrot, beetroot, mini-turnips. But no leeks, no parsnips (which normally grow like weeds) and no Florence red onions. They'll be allowed one more week, but after that, I'll try another batch.
The broadbeans, which I grow between the camelias (why waste a perfectly good garden?), are poking their heads through too. I aim to better the harvest of two years ago, where a neighbour and I ended with bags of them.
Assisting (?) me with the gardening was the Wombat-cat. While trying to take artistic photos of seedheads, she managed to sneak into the background. Although being rather wombat-like, she doesn't so much sneak as, er, waddle. But it still made an interesting photo!
