... it will either be utterly awesome or a mess!

I took the frame of my tropical greenhouse and put twine and deer netting over it (shouldn't have done that with my broken ribs and paid dearly for it the next day). I sowed a lot of mixed seeds from communal frames of previous years and some of my less than stellar F series crosses in hopes that something interesting might pop up. I wasn't judicious about it, just threw everything into some cells and of course they ALL came up. What you see planted is about 2/3's of what came up. The rest went into a long window box and I'll be doing a Gerris and pruning them back into bushes.

I was really wanting some MG's this year but with moving house just didn't have time to set up the arches so this was the next best thing. Next year I'll get serious.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
