The adventures of a family and a garden
About Me
- _vTg_
- I'm happiest when I'm growing something, according to my husband B. He's right, and this is my blog of the growing projects in my life: our sons (aged 2 and 4 years), and our suburban garden.

Ooh... you need to walk past and throw more seeds in! Every time I collect cornflower seeds from my garden I think how I should scatter them on the sidewalk, on vacant blocks, in parks...
More to the point, I need to collect some seeds!!
You, on the other hand, need to research seed bombing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_bombing
I have been threatening a friend with seed bombing her vacant block with tomato-and-basil seed bombs.
LOL!! We went on a steam tram ride down at Thirlmere last summer and a yellow wildflower was growing all along the tracks. My MIL told me that during wartime (??) a lady started a trend of scattering the seeds along all the train tracks in NSW. Not sure how correct my version is of that but it's a lovely story!
Nicer than the similar intentions of Baron Ferdinand von Mueller who encouraged the spread of blackberries in Australia as food for the weary traveller!
