Same here, no idea could eat them lol. Do remember them fondly, especially the bright colouring. Also remember making a picture out of another plant when I was in primary school called 'honesty'... aaah lovely memories!
Well today is overcast and cooler (so far) so planning on tackling some stubborn moss on the patio. One thing in life is that you can always guarantee that moss has dropped off the roof and is trying to grow wherever it can get a grip 🙄

I'm naturalising Honesty in our hedges here. It wasn't very efficient, but I mixed their seeds and foxglove seed with damp sand and chucked it into the hedges a couple of years ago. The foxgloves have increased anyway as a result of laying the hedges, but now I see some honesty plants too that should flower this coming spring.Edit: Lovely morning here, which means I get to clean windows.....2

Foxgloves make a lovely sight in hedges (hopes a pic might come this way when they are flowering next year 😁) and are loved by insects. Enjoy those windows D 😊Just my opinion, no offence 🐈1

Mixed weather here, sun & then it hammered down, luckily I was back indoors by thenMy on offer £1 a packet seeds have arrived now 2021 starts here, I can picture the radishes now.Actually I'm rubbish at radish growing despite them growing like grass for everyone else. Once upon a time they never failed for me but somehow I've lost the touchNext year I'm going to try a method I saw where you sow one seed per station in a 40 cell seed tray insert, you know the flimsy plastic onesMay be a PIA sowing but it's only for me so a few every couple of days should do the trick, and if still locked down I can sit and watch them growEight out of ten owners who expressed a preference said their cats preferred other peoples gardens1

Yes, all is fine here, thanks, work is very busy at the moment, 6 days off over the festive period means manic beforehand and then after .... still, it's good to be busy 👍😊
Garden-wise, all looking good, wet and soggy but good 😋
Christmas-wise ...... bring it on 😁😁😁🎄🎄🎄🍗🍰🍺🍷🥂🍻🎉🎁
General forum-wise (clearly not Garden subforum), i have to log off pdq these days because there's so many posts that wind me up .... best to sign off and walk away 🙄😠😤3 -
