Got the Dwarf French beans planted alongside the broad beans in the main bed. Fleeced them to protect overnight, it's hard to predict anything weather-wise as today it went from freezing cold to sunny t-shirt weather.

Those thousand or tiny impatiens seeds I individually sowed seem have thankfully worked well. Can't complain at a high success rate like that. More than got the 700 I need 🙌
