VA-Rose, Yes, went a bit overboard, but 2014 was my "big garden project" digging a good portion of backyard grass for mostly sunny garden beds. I planted ALOT but still have room for more...and read about WS'ing this summer and couldnt wait to try it. Got carried away w/seeds...I will tell you if it was worth it come spring when I see how my WS containers have sprouted/grown :0) I could never afford all the plants/variety I'd like, so WS'ing is my answer. I can only hope that my results turn out as wonderfully as others say they do.

My SIL gave us a small refridge years ago when she had to move it out of an apt. I used it to "winter" spring bulbs and take pots out every couple of weeks in the winter so I had blooms all winter long...that was NICE. It was given to someone who needed it more (for food). I should have held onto my daughter's college mini-fridge!?

Blomma, I heard of this plant only recently, probably on a seed site or someone's wish list when I had never heard of it. It's lovely and quite unusual.

So it's 6 degrees here in the Boston area with a windchill of much less...BRRR!
But my amaryllis is blooming as are my ice plant seedlings (counted over 20!!!), hunkering down for tomorrow's storm....Stay warm everyone!
