Something's growing!

A few weeks ago I planted hundreds of seeds and some bulbs in a range of planters and pots. Unfortunately it then rained for several days straight and nothing came up, so I assumed that they all drowned. But something's growing!

Two planters have haphazardly sprouted a bunch of little green stems, which look suspiciously like weeds. The planters sown with carrot seeds have sprouted shoots in tightly arranged clusters. A promising sign!

Half of the 26 marigolds have started growing, and the gladiolus pots have stems peeping out from the dirt. I am now officially a gardener.

I'm so happy so see you're back. Don't you just love random gardening? I've got some pots going too and have no idea which seeds have sprouted.
