Also known as "The Forest Lily" has really put on a lovely show since about the end of February .It didn't get too tall this year .
I think it has been pollenated , maybe , by the tiny spider that lives on my kitchen window .See the cobweb ?
I am taking it up to the greenhouse for it to finish plumping up those precious seedpods and when they have done and become crisp , I will gather the seeds and sow them .
That is a seedling bulb growing along-side the mother plant . They take a couple of years growing before they begin to bloom . They die back and I keep them pretty dry through the summer and they seem to wake up again in the Autumn .
This evening's beautiful sunset . Note - the Swallows have arrived !
Now listening out for the Cuckoos .
I am really busy now out in the veg garden , shed and greenhouse . Tomorrow I will begin putting my Tomato plants and the cucumbers into their final big pot/bags .
The compost is rubbish , we had to buy another lot ....more expensive and not much better than the first lot as it turned out . I am going to mix the two crappy composts together and add some perlite . I will be feeding the tomato plants later on .
🌱🌱🌱🌱 That's all for now folks ! It's all happening now ! 🌱🌱🌱🌱
