It was exactly two weeks ago today that Ms. Jeannie got going on her spring garden with the official planting of the seeds. And now here we are just 14 days later with sprouts that look like dancers…
The cucumbers and the snow peas are winning the race towards bloom day…
And the okra is not far behind…
Even the lone zinnia in the rescued and re-purposed pitcher has come to surface. Not doubt happy to have such an exotic home!
It is always fun to watch how each kind of seed unfurls…
The dill is dainty…
…while wax beans look downright pre-historic…
And then there was the sighting of an actual pre-historic…
“Just a baby,” said Mr. Jeannie Ology. This “baby” indeed, was three feet long, which was plenty long for the likes of Ms. Jeannie. Hopefully this little one will be gracious enough to stay out of the greenhouse!
