Ok, it’s not quite MacArthur Park, but this pack of lettuce seeds did get an unexpected soak. Great germination rate by the looks of it and a lovely sculptural form.
P.S. Eight days later.
Hello there. Welcome to 'out of my shed'. It's a blog about gardening in London throughout the year, with a visit now and then to some fab gardens further afield.

Au revoir les olive groves, les vineyards & les blue blue skies....#provence #frances #olivetree #grapevine #campsis#ansouis #provence #franceSpotted this lively small-flowered Clematis growing in a hedgerow here in Provence. I think it’s Clematis ligusticifolia, a lovely wild species that’s native to the west of N. America and NW Mexico. Aka Pepper vine.Said to be a tad aggressive when growing in areas with high rainfall, but also grows well in dry conditions once established.#clematis #wildclematis #wildflowers #florafrance #wildflora #france #gardensofinstagramChicory blue shutters! #chicoryflower #france #provenceOut walking this morning & had an intriguing glimpse of the gardens @lepavillondegalon Not able to visit this time sadly, but hope to explore the gardens later in the year......#france #Provence #jardinremarquable #boutiquehotelCorrr!!

Looks great I don’t think I would have guessed what it was
Hi JG, Although initially annoyed at wasting a pack of seeds, I was delighted when the open packet revealed this gorgeous condensed growth. Took me quite by surprise too.
Micro veg at its finest!
Indeed!!
Pretty!
Hi Janet, have kept watering them and they’re still going strong. They may be worthy of another pic in a day or so….
