I'm growing flowers for my centrepieces, and transplanted the seedlings into pots on the weekend.  Yay!  Grow my pretties, grow!  The flowers are called blue mink, but I'm hoping they turn out more on the purple side.

In the beginning...

After 2 weeks...

Today!  (about 5 weeks in) I'm hoping now that they're in their proper pot, they'll take off.

Thanks ladies!  Can't wait for the weather to improve, so I can put the pots int he greenhouse (there are 28).  They're in the spare bedroom, with a north facing window, so the cat won't eat them.

Well, it's a good thing I had extras!  I had to replant about 6 of the 28 pots yesterday, since some didnt survive the transplanting.  But the rest seem fine

They are in the greenhouse now, underneath a plastic cover, so greenhouse in a greenhouse right now! LOL.  There's 2 more pots I'm keeping an eye on, they may need to be replanted in the next day or two, depending.
