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.

Transplanted tiny teasel seedlings in a teasel-less garden this Spring. Think they’re going to look gorgeous next year. #beefriendlyflowersGiant Red Mustard Leaf still supplying hot spicy leaves for a stir fry. Rather handsome plant too. #winterveggies #autumncolours #growyourownfoodMost delicious dumplings (& cucumber) @dintaifunguk today @coventgardenldn Yum!!!!! Love the heated toilet seats too!!#fenchurchstreetThanks Yolande & @freyabramblecarter @chrisbrambleceramics for a fun glazing session. Looking forward to seeing the results! #ceramics #glazingFound some Autumn Crocus bulbs that I forgot to plant. Originally planted a batch at the beginning of October. This group flowered within a few weeks, but they do flop over in a not-so-gorgeous way once they’re done. Still, up close, and in the sunshine, they are rather mesmerizing. #crocusspeciosus #autumncoloursOlder posts

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….
