      You'll be fine till mid March I'd have thought.

      Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

      Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

        I've got some lupin seeds to sow. I thought they would bring a bit of colour to the allotment, could possibly be used for cut flowers and if all else fails, and because they are a legume, dig them in as green manure!

          I sowed some in October as a green manure. They haven't growed though

            I've got some saved from the plant in my garden. I'll sow them at the end of Feb (but I know I will probably not get flowers till next year. Last spring's plants went into the village flowers beds in October so I'm looking forward to seeing what we get). They are a short lived perennial and give lots of colour mid-season - when the bulbs have gone and most of the perennials haven't got into their stride.
            Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

              My lupin from last year hasn't made it through these frosts.

                I am just about to sow some T&M Tutti Fruttis in modules. I will put them in my
                unheated greenhouse and keep my fingers crossed. Do mice go for lupin seeds?.

                  Just sown mine indoors in pots on the windowsill. I soaked them first in water for a couple of hours. Nothing up yet.
