Chancing my arm

Chancing my arm

Going back to our bungalow in Lanzarote at 4.30am on Saturday (great pubs there that don't ever seem to close) and found these great big seeds at the base of what I think was either Phoenix canariensis, or robellini. And of course I couldn't resist the call of nature (not what some people might think I am referring to) but I stashed these in my bag. I hope to put them into the electric propagator at the weekend and see what happens.

Did no gardening today as my fingernails were still in 'holiday mode'. It's not too often my colleagues see my hands like that. I guess ten minutes after working outside in the garden centre tomorrow that will all change. Must root out my thermals!!!

They're all from the same tree, Michelle. Just taken at a different angle.

Looking forward to see them growing next year, Jacinta.
