The Strength in a Seed



We have had several pounding rains since I planted my lettuce and arugula seeds outside. Because these seeds were so tiny, I was afraid that the rain would wash them away. While looking for any damage from last night's storm, I found that my arugula has sprouted! Amazing.

I also noticed a couple of pea plants starting to sprout and an onion beginning to come up through the dirt. My tomato, pepper and eggplant seedlings are thriving indoors. And the raspberry canes I planted a few weeks ago are growing, too. Maybe it's a bit nerdy of me, but I get excited watching the life and strength in these plants.
