Dawn you are not goin' to believe it but I was finally able to send your seeds today. BUT, I had several things to do on the way to the car so I laid them on the fender of the car and went over, turned the hose off, got the things out of the lawn mower basket, found my keys in there, went back and locked the door, got in the car and drove up to get Bob at the North end and proceeded to town. Went to the post office first thing, reached for your seeds, and, you guessed it, no seeds.

Then it dawned on me what I did. Or, didn't do. Yes, I had to have left them on the fender of the car. Sooooooo, when we came back, Bob was driving and he swerved at the driveway for me to pick up the seeds, and there was a big logging truck behind us and we were not all the way off the highway. Fortunately there was no vehicle coming towards us and he was able to go around us!!

They do not look like they were run over, I have another appt in Spokane tomorrow and can't send them Saturday 'cause the post office is not open on Sats. So, here I go again. Next week for sure. It's amazing. Those seeds were just not meant to get to you. But we will persevere.

Do any of you grow Platycodones? I never have but got some seed in a seed swap last winter. I put a few seeds in a small pot and here is what I got. Now I have to google them and find out how big they are suppose to get etc. Growing in a little pot is not a true picture of how they normally grow.
