Brilliant video Amy, I am going to put my seeds in the fridge! Thank you for a very informative video.
Just love the jumper Amy, I always say that lol
Ive just found your channel, absolutely brilliant ! your in depth info was great ! im going to binge watch your other videos now x
Lots of flowering plants like to have their seeds planted now so they get a blast of winter cold, and garlic actually REQUIRES cold to develop properly, so get these winter-loving crops planted before your soil freezes and you'll love what you can pick next year! 🧅🧄🌼
