Some nice sun and rain. Is there much happening in your garden?

You managed to grow nasturtium? Probably in house. All my attempts ends same way, it got eaten by possum. It seems to be too tasty.

I planted absolutely heaps of it, and most of the pots were close to the door where the cat sits. Maybe possums and mice can smell her.

The first ones in a different area did get completely eaten and so did the one furthest away from the door.

It seems my cat is sleeping on duty :-) ( he is 17 y.o. so it is excusable ) or I have brave and very hungry possums around.

Mine is 18 but maybe they’ve seen her jump up against the door and are scared to test her.
