Saturday evening, 13-07-24

Evening, all.

I noticed this today.

I had a very battered old planter that contained some self-seeded fern.  It was really attractive.
I needed to replant it into a different pot and, at first, the fern started to die off, going completely brown (as you can see).  
However, I glanced at it today and - can you see? - there's three new fern shoots coming up.  I'm so pleased.

Not the clearest photo in the world but this is how the yarn is knitting up.  I do like it.

I went out and about a couple of times, cooked meals and generally kept myself busy most of the day,

I just have to finish getting my jolly bag packed and that's me ready for tomorrow.  

As usual after a coach trip, I'm not sure if there will be a post tomorrow evening.  If not, I will be back on Monday.

I'm almost falling asleep now so I will get this posted now and then work on staying awake for another hour.  Sleep tight, everyone!  xx

      It's pretty, isn't it.
      The fern was self seeded, not something I deliberately planted, but when it came up I was really pleased because it's such a vibrant green. xx.

      It was dry. Not all that sunny but when the sun did come out, it was hot. xx

    Ferns are very resilient. I had a few that self seeded into the weed guard under our old decking. I potted them up and now they are nice healthy plants for free. I hope your baby fern shoots grow well for you too.
    Looking forward to hearing about you trip x
