imported plant

Last summer I asked my mother in law to get me one of the many wild geranium she has in her garden in Bretagne in France. 

The plant came back in holland with me in a little pot, 

It survive though  the winter ( wich in holland is like you see in Game of thrones, last like 5 years ! 

ok ok 8 month .. even my narcissius will tell you  )

It  also survive through the weird moldy bateria that was in the pot

not like 

the fresh cyclamen bought from the garden centrum :-(

( but I'm not surprise... plants from the garden centrum are so confined in their protected, 

well temperate, well feed atmosphere garden centrum. When they get out, they are extremly fragile. 

how many plants died a couple of  weeks after I place them outside in my garden ? )

to prevent this huge waist of money, I'll try to seed my own plants, they grow slowly,

and much more resistant ! :-)

Or in this case I'll get strong plant from 'real' garden 

 from my family in France.

carots are growing

This year is the first time I'm growing carots. 

how exiting, to try to grow new vegetables. 

Vanessa gave me some seeds that I planted outside on my balconny.

Monty ( should I precise Don from gardener's world ? )

 told us last friday to plant carots every two weeks 

to recolt them all summer . 

Unfortunatly, I have a balconny and not a wonderful vegetable garden like Monty have

I still bought more seeds at the hema, 

and the cassiere ask me if I have a bunny ! 

no no it is just to try out and make funny pictures for my blog 

:-)  

to be folowed ...
