    Yes planting your flowers along the edge is a brilliant idea. Nasturtium(I had to Google the spelling). Everything looks beautiful in your garden. Thank you so much for this lovely video. Have a wonderful holiday.

    YES, A Nasturtiums border is perfect plus by leaving the seed pods fall off on their own naturally those will reseed themselves next spring. Would look so beautiful. Thank You for Sharing.💕

    Hi Sarah. You got a lot done ready in time for your holibobs. Great idea keeping nasturtium seeds and yes an edge of them along the grass wil look lovely. Look forward to next years display and the sunflowers and sweetpeas too. Thanks for sharing. Xxx

    So glad the lid was on those seeds! Can you imagine, we would have lost you among a forest of poppies😄. Yes to nasturtium along the edge, they will tumble down and be great cover.

    Another great video Sarah. Perhaps try and leave the Nasturtium pods on the plant as long as possible. Like the other plants you mentioned, they’ll turn brown and dry up and that’s the time to store them for next year. The mushroom spores were probably already in the compost mix you used. Probably edible but unless you’re sure not a good idea to eat. I bought bags of mushroom compost which local companies grow mushrooms in. They then sell the leftover soil for people to use in their gardens. It does wonders for growing veggies 🙂 I also got the added bonus of tons of mushrooms that came up. Ate them after cooking in butter. Yum!

    Was thinking about that grassy knoll you have there. I saw the video where you planted some flowers in the grass. So the idea I had was 6 posts strong enough to hold a broken teapot 🫖. Having then hang side ways from hook and chain. They could have some teapot lids at the top of the posts to bring home that theam. Painted posts with your choosing. Could even staple chicken wire of sorts to the back of the posts to allow up flow of vining foliage or flowers. Be pretty to see them drapped up down next season with flowers.

    Your compost will be sprouting flowers in the spring I think, unless it’s covered with plastic. Still, you could transplant them. 🌸 💐
