Simply..prettying up the greenhouse....

I don't grow nearly as many plants from seed as I once did and decided to partly re-purpose the 6' x 8' space into a 'sitooterie' - a wee place to sit out in.

I had to make do with what I could find....

Jasmine (£5 from the supermarket) Also from the supermarket lemon balm, trailing lobelia,  scarlet gerainiums and pinks.

From seed I have gypsophila, dill and night scented stock. I had such pathetic germination from all of these usually easy seeds that they were not worth putting in the garden but I potted them up individually and grew them on, and they have really prettied up the greenhouse. One little nicotiana seedling appeared from somewhere and I gave it a pot to itself too.

Plants were difficult to get online with long waiting times for delivery, but by ordering a special selection from Fibrex Nurseries I got five scented leafed geraniums quite quickly (good service,  good price and great plants).  I had now realised that scent was the thing to go for.

I ordered the heliotrope from Srah Raven at the same time as the sweet peas and although they have only just come they are good plants and fill the air with scent already.

Nothing rare or difficult or expensive but all sparking joy!
