OOOOOOH, I love that Evelyn, nice color, what's the height? I also have a light pink that just seeded in from the sight seeing blue. Origional seed was a mix of blue, white, and pink. My daughter has 1 white, I need to get it divided...lol. Yes Pam, it has been a challenge at times but I just dig in (punn intended, tee hee). I new I wanted a long border and that's where I started.

Lanakila..and plants too..lol. I'm waving my hand for those B. Walnuts...lol....Me..I will trade for them!!!! Ya, I may have to pull plants from my spring border that I had started, atleast part of it...Last year I attempted just pulling them but only got it done once last year and here comes those darn grasses. think I'll leave some but have some goodies that reseeded them in and I wannna keep'em. (Salvia turkestanicas which are biennals and should bloom next season at 4-6ft^ x 4ft>, so will have to get to them early!)

Probably should get to bed as it's late, been working on my seeds. Trying to take inventory so I can figure out what I will be starting. Finally decided I would organize and make an index card (bought 600..yikes) on each seed variety that I have and include growing tips, germination info and such..will be writing them in a notebook as I begin seed, that one will contain when seeded and actual germination time and potting on dates. Only 41 done so far, and I have many, many more to go(hundreds probably)....I got in on that rare seed trade earlier in the fall and DJ's hasn't even gotten to me , plus ALL those I been buying or collecting...... I'm thinking I'll be doing scads of Annuals this year to do some filling in between those new shrubs. I'd rather have flowers than w**ds to take care of til those shrubs grow up...(years). Hey Pam, that Nicotiana langdorfii says 3-5ft, how big did it get for you? Ok, back later...Kathy

Pix: would love to grow more of this one.....it's Papaver somniferum Laruen's grape, was there any seed in the box of this? And was there any seed for Monarda Lambada in the box....if not will have to buy...Gads!!!! LOL...
