Rain! A decent downfall. A bit heavy so a couple of my pepper plants have keeled over despite being staked. Now back upright. No need to water tomorrow, so I will do some 'proper' gardening. And everywhere looks and smells so different.

Hi All,
Bramble - Excellent news. Snoop Puss - I have always held out that one day we will have perfect conditions just enough rain at night witha good sunny not to hot day who knows maybe with all this climate change it's coming...

Greenishfing - I also have a Lazarus plant, maybe you should start a new thread called The Lazarus Project where all us green fingers can tell of similar miracles ? Myself I have just noticed earlier today new shoots appearing on a Prayer plant I was about to throw out, it has had no signs of life for a couple of months than when I was watering the Hosta's bang they are poking through just so I gave them a drink.....

Bren In Pots - Talking of Sun flowers is it to late to plant and expect a good result I have eight still at about the 12" stage just need to go in, the same actually for a few Cucimbers so I better get busy.....

As for what makes me Happy seeing my Granddaughter smiling and laughing brightens the day whenever she appears...

I’m not really in the garden long,it’s far too hot,I’ve just been popping out to put water in the containers quickly. I never knew these melons (emir) were even growing,I was putting bird food in the seed feeder at the opposite side of the garden,I looked over & spotted them,they’re so big already,they’ve done well in the greenhouse temperatures this year.

Hi All,
Jungle Jane - What a lovely surprise for you, it's always good to discover something you thought you never had growing. During the this spell of good weather however there is a downside at times I just looked over my Garlic experiment and although originally I qualified it as a success they now appear to be going down hill sadly I just wish I knew why ?

Still you take the rough with the smooth and learn for next time eh ?
