Wisley White is my favourite with a heavy vanilla scent - gorgeous in the evening on the patio, I have harvested seed this year and have loads. <br />chrisxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18433312226927542901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-57340671414898579172010-06-21T12:03:41.755+01:002010-06-21T12:03:41.755+01:00Nemesias are one of my favourites, Vegetable Heave...Nemesias are one of my favourites, Vegetable Heaven. I've even got them in my hanging baskets this year.<br /><br />It is delicately vanilla scented, Caro. I saw some nemesias on sale at Gardener's World Live on Saturday, but they didn't have this particular one.<br /><br />I always have some bedding nemesia which I treat as annuals, Su. They are so pretty, I hope you find one you like.<br /><br />It is a pretty flower, Bangchik. I'm so pleased I didn't compost it.<br /><br />The nemesia flowers all summer and in to autumn, Vrtlarica. I'm pleased that I've got my courgette to fruit earlier this year, I'll sow early again next year now that I know it works.<br /><br />The nemesias look so pretty in the window boxes, Jeanne. I'm glad my hubby has better eyesight than me.<br /><br />It's a good idea to check the roots, Tanya. It makes me wonder how many other things I've composted without checking properly. It's sometimes good to sow seeds early, but as many people have found out this year, it can be a hazzard too.<br /><br />Once the courgettes start there'll be no end to them, Anna. I don't mind a glut of courgettes though, I love them.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184901344095001216.post-26115111516782235682010-06-20T22:54:05.713+01:002010-06-20T22:54:05.713+01:00Well done that man of yours with his eagle eyed po...Well done that man of yours with his eagle eyed power of observation :) I think that my first courgettes will be ready for picking in the next week but I did not start them until April.

I know what you mean with nearly chucking things out when they have life left in them.

You sure had some warm weather. Our vegetables are all late compared to last year.
