Seed potatoes, various.
This wasn't a very well thought-out selection as I just popped into the shop to see whether they had any in yet, and they did, so I bought some. There are 30 Desiree, which we've grown before and like, though they may not be very exciting. I got a few King Edwards, which we don't like so much, but they did give a very good yield when I grew them a few years ago. Then there are even fewer Charlotte salad potatoes, which I like but Ian doesn't, and a couple of different varieties of first earlies, neither of whose names I recognised. I've put the labels under the trays so I know which is which, but how I'm going to keep track of the different varieties once they're in the ground, I don't know.
The next garden job is sowing the allium seeds that I should have sowed at the end of December. They might catch up, you never know. I could do with clearing some brambles, too, but perhaps not right now.
Snowy garden
I need to finish digging over my garden...but maybe when it thaws...
ReplyDeleteIt's seventy degrees today. I feel like I should be out planting and turning soil, although I might just go for a long bike ride.
ReplyDeleteActually, what I probably should do is haul the hose out and water the garden so I don't lose all the bulbs in the flowerbed again due to lack of water. It's rather incredible... here we are in late January and forest fires are a major threat. Sigh.
