Marilyn Monroe - another Epie update !

  Lettuce Romaine Cos type red and green and Pak Choi - ready to prick out and pot on .

I grow these on the bench in the shed . It works for me . They get early morning sun then the sun goes behind the trees behind the shed , so it doesn't get too hot in there .  There is a window , but I have to be very ,very careful as I open it , that the glass doesn't fall out .

It's still a bit of a mess in there . I am still trying to get some order back with my plants after the new workshop/woodshed and greenhouse were being built . Everything had to go in there , chaos ! 

I have more Epiphyllums in here . 😃🌿When they have all finished flowering , I will be tidying , pruning , re-potting and re labelling them . So many things had their labels muddled or lost !

For the time being  I have got to shove them all up to the other end of the bench ....to make room for the lettuce plantation . Which I may start tomorrow morning while it is still cool . ( We're having a mini heat wave right now )

I am unable to move one of my more precious Epies as she has two buds coming . 

Yep ...I've had Marilyn Monroe locked away in my shed all Winter ! 

                           Epiphyllum var "Marilyn Monroe " 

For the time being , she has to stay here and not be moved ....not even an inch .

                                    Or she will lose those buds .

                    I can't wait to see those gorgeous soft pink flowers again  🩷

Then I will cut her down to encourage a better shape and more stems to form . 

                I should get a few nice cuttings too .

                        Watch this space for more Epie updates !

                                      

  It's too hot for me , I'm going to have a flop beside a nice cooling fan and do my embroidery .

                          Cheerio fer now !
