Labour weekend planting

True to NZ tradition I have just finished planting vegetables for ourselves and my mum for Labour weekend. At three punnets of six seedlings each (18 seedlings) for $9.70 and a bag of potting mix we both have our salads lettuces started off for summer. Mum told me last week that she buys bunches of parsley from the supermarket (!!!!!!) so I have planted up parsley for her in various parts of the garden. The left over parsley I have potted up for myself – it will make nice gifts in a few weeks time when it has taken off. My peas are growing nicely – this weekend will be time to plant some more, I will soak some seeds tonight for my mum too. Share your seeds around with other people – that way some will come back to you as well and you’ll get different varieties to try out. My tomatoes are going well – at least I think they are. We still had frost up to last week which hopefully is the last lot ! Talking of gardening the “My Garden” site now has a trading area http://www.mygarden.co.nz/Trade/Default.aspx?Search=1. The “Kitchen Garden” has their organic tomato seedlings for sale at the moment also Need more space? : the kitchen garden.
