Plants update!

Remember these tiny beef tomato shoots?

 
Well they're these big monsters now! 


The smaller plants in front are sweet peppers that are doing really well too. 

My other windowsill plants are my chillies and they are also doing brilliantly. My kitchen chilli is an Apache bought from the Fair Trade fayer back in March here's before and now shots.

Here's the plant not long after I got it. 


And now with flower buds developing! 


The little plant at its side is spearmint. 

The peach habenaro chillies have really put me through it. First of all they took weeks to germinate. Then once they had shoots I dropped the propagator and lost most of them! Luckily the strongest ones survived. They now look like this: 


I have some other tomatoes and chillies on the go and then there are my sunflowers. Some started in the propogator - the larger ones at the front of the picture below. The two plants started in the garden from seed are in the small blue pot at the back. They are dwarf sunflowers so in not growing them for height. 


You can also see one of the pumpkins at the left. 

Things are looking good plant wise in the garden and my windowsills! 

My favourite pictures though today are little Kasumi cat "hiding" under my viburnum.
