Lea, so glad to hear that your Dad is feeling better, and getting accustomed to the change. Change is the hardest thing to accept. What is with his DR? I'd be camping out waiting for him by now. Hang in there! : )
Cindy, I didn't send out much seed but I am glad to know that my fellow piggies are putting smiles on faces! Your post put a big old smile on mine. HUGS!
I'm enthralled with sprouts as I think every craves fresh greens this time of year. Thanks for all the posts on the subject! : )
Never thought of germinating seeds in the toilet tank. On top of DH's toilet is usually covered with plants.
My Kalanchoe seems to thrive on benign neglect. The one in the corner of the greenhouse is currently covered in blooms and has bloomed several times. It doesn't get direct water, but seems to thrive on the condensation. I usually ignore them.
I sowed my Lupine (Texas BlueBonnet) outside in a couple of different locations, today (yes, I took photos). I have some mixed Lupine I'll be planting tomorrow. Yes, some are going into paper cups. Poppies are next, although I won't know until they bloom what kind they are. Surprises are good!
I am so far behind on WS'ing. I do finally have all the seed listed (Like 194 seed packages) and am doing research still to figure out when to plant in my zone. I am going to make more tags and clean some more containers, and soak some seed tonight, and get back on it tomorrow.
DH, Spirit and I took a long walk on the farm today. It is looking so pretty and green. One of my favorite wildflowers is sprouting it's a form of native Chamomile aka Pineapple weed. See Photo.
I have sprouts coming up of the B.fly mix, and the Window Box mix. I have so much to do!
I don't know who sent the "Farewell to Spring" seed, but it is one I really wanted, and had forgotten it's name. Thanks for the nice Surprise! : )
Has anyone else had a problem with this thread? I mark it as unread and it keeps disappearing and I have to go find it again in the Cottage Gardening forum. It's probably just me. : |
Missed you guys! : )
