Here's a Little Miss who loves her vegetables, and her favourites are peas. All you little princes and little princesses will keep on growing if you eat up your peas, and my little secret is that the tastiest ones are those you grow at home!.
Little Miss Giggles loves growing cucumber plants. She finds that they grow better the more she giggles with them.
Whenever Little Miss Sunshine wants to cheer people up, she gives them a packet of sunflower seeds. She shows them how to plant them, one to a pot, or in the ground and how to water them.
Sow outdoors where they are to flower. Before sowing, prepare the ground well by raking until the soil is fine and crumbly and remove any large stones. Sow 1.5mm (1/16) deep, in rows 30cm (12) apart, or scatter seed in beds or borders as a gap filler and lightly cover over. Thin out the seedlings when they are large enough to handle, to about 20cm (8) apart.
There's nothing more splendid than popping my head up out of the ground and seeing a wonderful display of red poppies. These are Little Miss Splendid's favourite flowers and she loves to grow them all over Misterland.
The Ox-Eye Daisy greets me every summer around Misterland, with its bright shimmering white and yellow blooms. Little Miss Hug loves to grow them too.
