Rachel's Journal

Lovely display.  I'm so nervous about putting anything out yet.  Rachel my cosmos look a bit very fragile looking never done them before so not sure waht to expect.

I dont think the weather is as good today, it certainly isnt up here in Laois :O(

Hope they are still alive.

Well done they look great lovely colours

I love that one with white stripes,,beautiful!

Well done, they look great.

Una, cosmos seedlings regularly look bendy and whispy and flop all over the place for a good while. They will get sturdy and stand up in the end - have faith. Don't throw them out because they are too leggy!

My cosmos did okay today in the greenhouse. I did adjust the windows so they were in no direct draught and water them during the day. I'm chancing them out there tonight. I have found cosmos do okay down to 5 degrees in the greenhouse. Will let you know how they get on tomorrow.

Thanks Rachel, when I looked at them this morning they actually look o.k.  I will keep the faith.  I'm sure your glad to be able to get some of your seedlings out to the greenhouse.  Fingers crossed.

When I read your title I thought you had already got your hens!
