As it came in a kit, that is not massively impressive, but at any rate, when it was delivered this morning I finished clearing a patch for it to go on, and have just finished building it. It is outside our living room window, at the front of our house, as it is South facing.
Clearing the patch involved digging up a great many Cyclamen! I wanted to keep as many as possible, as they are beautiful plants, but this was pretty time consuming as there were rather a lot of "babies", tiny single-leaf plants that I doubt would survive being stored dry for a while like the larger bulbs.
I'm hesitant to put plants out in the frame tonight (thereby freeing up a little windowsill), as I'm not sure if it would still reach freezing inside, given how incredibly cold the last few nights have been. I'm going to place a bowl of water inside tonight, and so long as I remember to look at it before the sun has been on the frame for long, I can check for ice.
In a little while, I will be sorting out containers to sow Calabrese and Carrots. All my Cauliflower seeds (which I planted one week ago) have germinated, and I have lovely strong looking seedlings. Which is more than can be said for the onions! Never mind, it is all a learning curve. :-)
