Geek Gardener

Hello there. I'm Matt and I'm a computer geek. My fiancée Nancy
is a big gardening fan and she gets a great suntan pottering around in our
garden dealing with plants and flowers and things whilst I waste away typing.
I have therefore decided to redress that balance by trying to grow something
myself this summer. This site tracks my efforts.

Nasturtiums Uprooted

Some of them had quite big roots:

Despite my size I can be delicate!:

And here they are in their new home:

I have to say that they look a little ragged and unwell. Although after such a major operation (and they were a little parched anyway before I started) I’m not that surprised. Hopefully the gallon of water I just drenched them in will help them recover.
