That\'s a lot of seeds Evelyn. I have about 4 varieties of tomatoes started in the greenhouse, one big wide pot of snapdragon, whatever the package said for variety. One big wide pot of echinacea from seed I took from mine, and they are sprouting. most of what you have listed I couldn\'t get to live through May I suspect. I\'ve tried lupines and digitalis and failed, except for the occasional bluebonnet (Texas state flower). I toss wild larkspur seed out, a fair amount has germinated. Of all the A. tuberosa I put out I don\'t think any has germinated, but my poppies did. I have holly hock seed but can\'t find a place to provide right conditions for the whole plant. Hoping to get a few more things going before work gets even busier.

I did manage to pull my Mexican flame vine (forgot name), some flame acanthus and one pitiful little Brazillian buttonflower through in the greenhouse. That early December freeze wiped out half the stuff I had in pots and had battened down on the porch, most of my mums and asters are gone, and my luck at seeding them hasn\'t been good but I may put a few seeds in a pot in the greenhouse tomorrow. I am off, barring emergencies.
After Monday\'s job, tuesday\'s bees, and Wednesday\'s jobs, then taking grandkids to six flags today, I am due for a nap.

and then we have the mystery seedlings. they have filled this pot, half of a couple more, and are even coming up in my onion bed. Not sure what they are but I assume I had a plant that successfully reseeded
