My fail experiment


All is not bed of roses in my garden. My love for temperate flower has led me to start experiment with it.  These are the conclusion:-

 Total failure:  Freesia never sprout, Ranunculus sprouted in the fridge, it dried up slowly after i brought it out, delphinium & larkspur never germinate 

Ranunculus


Failure is partially contribute by neglect during my illness: Hollyhock, foxgloves (Aphid love it), statice.

Failure because i do not know how to care for it beyond germinating it:  Nigella damascene, Pride of Madeira

Failure because i sow it at wrong time: Sweet pea, it grows for about one metre before heat kills it
