Oh tharg im sorry to hear that 🙁 I understand where your coming from….my sister had a lovely tortoise too and a nice age. Sadly her older dog mistook it for a toy and despite the specialist treatment (eye watering price) the tortoise was in too much shock – it did have an amputation….it’s also buried in there garden. My niece was distraught as was my sister.
I love them little piccolo toms, I grew some of them big Spanish ones into squares when I was a child by encasing them in a thin plastic box mould thing.
Iv repotted my sunflowers this afternoon as the stalk has become fluffy and too tall for the little starter pots. My sweet peas are coming along nicely too and I have about 5 carrot seedlings that have sprouted 🙂 the strawberry sticks have gone totally mad and the cress is being gradually consumed ?
