#66 Growing An Eggling Garden

An Eggling looks like an extra large egg, it is hand made from white porous ceramic so it feels like one too!
It sits in a little terracotta tray & seeds are pre sewn into it's fortified peat mixture, all you have to do is tap it's top with a spoon to crack it open, water it & place it somewhere sunny!
There are ten different varieties including three herbs (basil, mint & thyme), three flowers (chrysanthemum, phlox, petunia) & four special edition plants (lavender, cactus, red pepper & wild strawberry).


  


What a super cute way for children to be introduced to gardening & it doesn't hurt that they are also pretty easy on the eye!

Who knows, maybe I will even have another go at keeping a plant alive ...
