The Fairy Garden Reborn: 07/27/06

Back on the 5th Sean and I replanted his fairy garden with the nasturshum seeds he picked out. Sometime last week in the middle of the heat wave six of them sprouted. They are now about one inch tall and have two or more leaves for each plant. I think we planted about a dozen seeds so either more will sprout or the heat killed off half of the planted seeds. We still have may more seeds to plant so if the heat gets more of them we can start again.

The heat has also taken its toll on Sean's pumpkin plants. A lot of the early growth has died back even with regular watering. I think we've also lost one of the six berry plants we planted back in spring. Everything else seems to have survived the heat.
