Some weeks ago we planted gladioli bulbs in our little garden. I can now confirm the gladioli are growing...and the sunflowers too. We never planted sunflowers this year. SD has this theory that some sunflower seeds from last year's plants fell on our compost bin. We used the compost to plant the gladioli. Result? Gladioli. And sunflowers. Moral of the story? Don't let seeds fall in the compost bin, even if your life is at stake.


Hace unas semanas plantamos gladiolos en el jardin. Y los gladiolos estan creciendo...asi como los girasoles. Este anio no hemos plantado girasoles. La teoria de SD es que algunas semillas de girasol de las plantas del anio pasado cayeron en el container donde preparamos compost (fertilizante natural). Usamos el compost al plantar los gladiolos. Resultado? Gladiolos. Y girasoles. Moraleja? La proxima vez, evitar que caigan semillas en el compost, aunque tengamos que arriesgar la vida en ello.
