My seed catalogues are stacking up on my desk, time to decide on this year’s must have plants – no pressure there then Sal.
Plant propagation whether by seed,stem,root or leaf is always a bit of a personal firm favorite. I’m also quite happy to save a bit of time. I found this in my garden – I just love the way that it all happened within its own seed capsule – how clever.
Wild carrot was one of my star plants in 2013, and will definitely be on the list for propagating. I sowed a wild flower meadow for a friend, so again I can take no credit, as it just sort of germinated and flowered without any human intervention. If only all seeds were so generous in their ease of germination …
With Valentines day only shortly in the distance I thought I would share with you all this Judas tree leaf – what a great shape.
A few of my favorite images from this week. Bring on Spring is all I can say.

thanks Jen, I taught propagation at college for years and it still amazes me how clever seeds are. The belt was my christmas present to myself – from a brilliant supplier called Niwaki.
