Grails

The theme on the scarf board is "Grail Scarves". 




For me, it is a c/s "Pierres" from quite a few seasons ago and I have sung its praises not that long ago here.


On a side note, the sweetpeas sown indoors have started to sprout and have now gone into the coldframe. Delaying to move them, will make them leggy, so if you have sown yours recently, keep checking for shoots.


Hard to believe that these unassuming little sprouts, still devoid of any foliage, will produce such astonishing blooms and intoxicating scent by summer.

I now have the daily ritual of opening and closing the coldframe, making sure those pesky tiny snails don't nibble the tender shoots and keeping the compost slightly moist. not much else to do until the first leaves appear.
