Spring garden things

[jhameia]

The daffodils are done blooming, I think but it looks like the freesia have decided to take a turn... about half the plants, despite being flattened, have flower buds! Can't wait to see how they turn out. The row of garlic is also coming along. The aloe vera is still.... I don't even know! It's splotchy and whatnot. Maybe sticking it into the ground wasn't the best idea... I should have a planter for succulents alone. F came over to cut some parsley the other day for herself, so yay! And the hibiscus has some tiny new leaves budding. I had a dead pomegranate so I thought I would try planting its seeds in an egg carton to see what happens. So far nothing. Gotta plant the carrots and spring onions soon. I'm just mad at the compost heap taking so long!!

The hummingbird seed mix is ready to go... once the freesia blooms, I'll spread it across the patch with the bulbs. Same with the desert flower and Californian seed mix. Might even try spreading it on the ground a little beyond my patio too, because I'm not a fan of the creeper stuff there.
