Sow Much to Sow - Pardon My Pun

Leaf and flower week in February calls for Brussels Sprout, Lettuce, Celery, Gherkin and Cucumber...lots of flowers too! Pot Marigold, Nasturtium Empress of India...it's beginning to feel a lot like Spring is coming. The bees are buzzing, birds are flitting to and fro, the days are lengthening.

23rd February 2012
Hottest day of the year so far at 17 degrees centigrade...WOW!

I have sown tagetes Pot Marigold Nova, Celery Full White, Giant Red and Sold Pink, Lettuce Blonde a Couper, Cucumber Beth Alpha, Boothbys Blonde and King of the Ridge, Gherkin Piccolo Di Parigi and Cornichons de Paris.
The greenhouse benches are almost full already...gulp!

Update - photos added of Brussels Sprout Rubine and Seven Hills
