I am a member of The Diggers Club here in Australia. As part of this membership, I can get some free seeds every so often. I received my chosen seeds this week.

The first is a packet of seeds for flowering plants preferred by bees. As frequent readers will know, I love watching the bees on flowers, so I thought this would be perfect to do so at home.

There is an option to choose a random packet of vegetable seeds that come as a bit of a surprise when you get those seeds. This time I got some kale. I may have to work on encouraging my husband who does most of the cooking to give it a go-I’ll let you know how I get on with that one.

Leeks are a great vegetable that we haven’t had much of in recent years. I am a huge fan of leek and potato soup, so my thinking was to get some leek seeds and enjoy some soup.

Finally, I have this little great little garden helper called Cuddles the cat. As part of her ‘duties’ she deems it necessary to sometimes chomp on my plants that I have growing. While I font generally mind if these plants are not poisonous to her, but I’d rather she didn’t. That’s why I got my dear little helper som pet grass. As she can be a rather contrary madam, she may well ignore this, but I hope she enjoys it more than other plants I have growing out in my garden.

Here is the mischievous fur ball that loves to help. As you can see, butter would not melt.

That’s all for now, but I have a few things to do out in the garden, along with sowing these seeds.
