A couple of weeks ago I sent Rebecca, whose blog is My Own Little Thyme and Space Part Two , some spare flower and vegetable seeds to use on her allotment in south-east London. They included Pot Marigolds Flighty’s Favourites and a few dwarf tomato Red Robin. The latter to try in a pot on her balcony as, like me, she doesn’t have a garden. Several months ago she moved to another, better, plot on the site where she is so this will be her first growing season on this one.
By way of a generous thank you she very kindly sent me a pair of wonderful handknitted woollen Wellington Boot Toppers, which she says are great for keeping debris out and for added warmth! Along with these was a lovely card and message.
I’ve always been happy to send seeds to gardening and plotting friends, and it’s really nice when I receive a thank you gift such as these in return.
Have a good week, and take care!

Belinda I haven’t tried them yet as I’ve been wearing boots rather than wellies. xx

I’ve never heard of Wellington boot toppers but they sound and look like a very good idea. Wishing you, Rebecca and all your fellow plotters a warm, successful growing season.

I’m glad you like the Wellington Boot Toppers Mike. I shall look forward to sowing the seeds that you kindly sent me. Of course I’ll be blogging about how the seeds get on.
As Karen from Allotment Haven has already stated she loves the allotment and gardening community with Mike in agreement too, I also make them both right.
Happy Plotting Mike, take care and enjoy the remainder of the week xx
