This afternoon when I got home from work, I had the joy of being greeted by a plethora of leggy, growing seedlings. I thought that my hard work (mixing soil, putting in boxes, shoving seeds in the ground and adding water) had been rewarded! But as I looked a bit closer, I realized that none of the seedlings were where I had planted seeds. I'm guessing that this is the unfortunate result of using compost in my soil mix. But there was one tiny, verdant seedling bravely making its way in a world of strangers-it looks like we have a leek! (Hopefully)
Alas, it's not a leek. It's a weed. Still no leeks, but lots of tomato, echinacea and onions.
