Sad to say that many of my other starts look in much the same condition. Peppers, basil, cilantro, etc. So today I went to the nursery where they're nice to baby plants and bought some new one's to take home with me. I promise to be much kinder to them! (It will be much easier to do now that things are back to normal around here)
Not to say that I've killed everything - hardly! All the plants outside that were already in the ground look lovely and healthy and happy.... I will have to make a post here soon about the veg garden in general. In the meantime how about some pretty pictures of all the spring flowers? That should cheer you up after seeing my half dead baby plants.

Well your flowers are absolutely beautiful! My condolences to your many seedlings. At least there is a way for a back up, right?
Aw, it's alright Jenn...we all mess up sometimes...You should be proud of the flowers though - they look beautiful...
Oh the poor tomatoes. I'm guessing you couldn't recruit your guests into gardening. Then you would have a lot of help.
Jenn,
Looks like you'll have to go the the farmers market and by some tomato plants for the garden this year. Those tulips are very pretty!
Megan, yup! I love the nursery back up plan. ^^
EG, it was more neglect then anything. And it wasn't all my starts, just a few... it hasn't really fazed me too much.
Daphne, Saddest tomato starts ever. Heh. I did get some help on one of the last days of the visit from my 9 yo niece. But she mostly wanted to do the fun part of planting seeds. I really did try to get her to pull weeds - to no avail! ::alas::
Randy, I did hit up the nursery for a few tomato starts already. They're out in the cold frame waiting for our night time temps to warm up a bit before I put them in the ground for good.
