30 of them have been sown in ground where i loosened up the soil,

divided into small squares, sprinkled seeds, covered with sand and

added a marker made of ice-cream stick..

the others are in pots which have been covered with plastic to

retain moisture

i get really impatient whenever i sow seeds.. i must have looked at

whole set-up every 5 mins and i was actually expecting to be

surprised by germination on the same day.. guess i need to learn

how to wait..

also i have begun with container-garden clean-up.. give weeds a

slight chance and they take over the place.. and its so very boring

to remove the same same kind of weeds everytime.. atleast if they

have to come up i expect a variety to keep the process

entertaining..
and while i was doing that i found a new good-looking kind of weed

which in fact turned to be guess-what?? an almond seedling!!! how

or why i have no idea but have a look..

i have moved it to a better location and will keep an eye on its

behaviour.. now growing almonds is what i never aimed at.. but as

long as it is a plant who cares.. i might as well give it a shot!!

i also have a mystery plant which might open up tom and solve the

mystery but for now it looks like an exotic poppy to me..

have three of these and i have moved the two smaller seedlings into diff pots

to allow space for each of them.. also growing in the same pot were

two diff types of pansies which i thought never germinated so now i

won’t know what kind they are until they bloom.. have transplanted

some of those too..
