Introduction to my Garden/Growing Area

 So this is my setup. I recently added the larger greenhouse, I can finally walk in and hide when it's raining! 
 Inside the small greenhouse, I have some Myosotis (Forget-Me-Nots) sprouting! Got the seeds from eBay, glad most of them germinated! 
 In the small peat pots, I have Indian Bean Tree seeds. Also bought off eBay. Need to see if these ones will germinate, but the seeds themselves are swelling so I think they might.
 Here we have some week-old cuttings of Lavender and a wild rhododendron. I hope they all root, purple flowers are the best!
And here we have the first test cuttings I ever took. From my Cardinal de Richelieu rose (left) and a pink climber (right). I hope they root too, but I have a feeling they won't!

And speaking of purple flowers .....

Here we have my favourite rose, Cardinal de Richelieu! This is the first flower this particular plant has produced this year and sadly it came out deformed! Proliferation, I believe it's called. Another flower has started to grow and open up INSIDE this flower! Hopefully this is the only one that does this on the plant.

So, that's a quick tour around my main working area! I'll give a more detailed tour when it's not such a gloomy day!
