Looking good Wayne. Looks a lot sunnier in the smoke than up here in Notts!

Excitement here is down to these guys,

My seedlings are coming along.
Thought I'd post this as it shows a real range of sizes of the seedlings.

The first ones to pop through are just starting to form their first true lead.

As the weather is still awful, thought we can cheer ourselves up by talking about plants in our greenhouses.

Thought I'd show you how my pup of Agave desmettiana Galactic Traveller is doing, hopefully it will continue to grow in the forthcoming summer

This is part of the reason I need to build the new greenhouse! Hoping a lot of these will be ok outside with a bit of shelter when they get big enough.
