Seeds to be Seedlings

So I started the seeds the other day. I started the seeds in little peat pots and saved-from-last-year-plastic-plant-thingys on Sunday the 27th. I planted 8 each of the Red Dragon Peppers and Orange Fogo Peppers. and 7 Brandywine Tomatoes, 5 Marvel Tomatoes and 4 Green Zebra tomatoes.

All the plants are now in my little plastic greenhouse at work where they will most likely remain until it is time to plant all the plants at the beginning of April (or end of March).

Also. The last weekend in March is the Zilker Park Plant Festival. I haven't gone yet, but I think this may be the year.

It seemed appropriate to post this here, but a mere 10 months after buying my improved meyer lemon tree, the lemons are almost ripe! They're yellow at least, though they didn't exactly seem like they were about to drop off the stem. The plant blanket seems to be working quite well as an impromptu greenhouse, moisture content is quite high and temperatures must have been well above freezing for the plants to have lasted this long.
