Lovely isn't it. Seeing these little living things spring up from dry seed. Fascinating really.

Have to agree - when I plant seeds I look at the pots or ground every day - convinced that they are not going to sprout and then all of a sudden there they are (well except for the parsnips).

Sloegin - maybe I need to sweet talk my tomatoes - no sign of them turning red yet  :(
Hope your workmate enjoys her new hobby - it can really take over your life (just like this forum).
