MY BEETS ARE UP!

Yes, my seedlings have popped their heads above ground today! I'm so thrilled. Isn't God's creative power marvelous? Isn't the combination of brick red color and lime green color amazing? Isn't it mind-boggling to think that every one of the millions of plants in the world look distinct, even at this small stage? This seedling is so tiny. Don' t the clumps of soil look huge next to it? ....Yes, and the leaf pieces. (Read my last "Growin' Gardens" post for the story behind the leaves!)

The area I planted with beet seeds is about 4'x5'. Today marks day 11 since I planted them. The package said "10-20 days for germination," so we're doing well!
