      @Jack Sparrow those little beauties are Nasturtiums. I grow lots of them, dwarfs rather than climbers, all sorts of varieties.

        Hi @Victoria . I take it they are annuals. I think I have just about got my perennials in order so I'm hoping in the future I can start to experiment a little. Food for thought though.

        Hi @Jack Sparrow. Yes, they are Annuals .. but here they can be Perennial depending on the species. A nice splurge of colour and they germinate very quickly.

            @strongylodon Do you have any close ups of the steam locomotive? That is priceless!

            The rest of the pictures make me feel that there serenity in the soil and water. Very nice :)
