I'm glad to hear that you received them and they came in good shape. I really, really appreciate it, Mark! And any seeds that you send me are always wonderful! I can't wait to see what extras you added for me! I really look forward to growing them and the seeds you sent me previously. I can't wait for Spring!!!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you , Mark! You are beyond kind and thoughtful. I really hope that some time I can send you some seeds, plants, or something that would make you smile, like your kindness does for me! :-) I truly appreciate it!
Need ideas for a long bog garden
Well i had to fill the little jiffy bag with something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
Can't remember what i have sent you this time................... you will have to wait and see.
You are welcome Becky.....................
Just hope they all grow for you!!
Mark - When you fill the jiffy bag, it's always with something delightful! Thank you ever so much! Now let's hope I can get those expensive Irises to grow!!!! :-) LOL!
You may want to start a new thread Becky, this one is getting a bit slow even on DSL! LOL! You have over 260 replies! Plus we need a picture update of your bog garden.
Yes Becky...................... it is gettin quite slow, and i am on dial up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yesssssssssssssssssssss picture updates, even if its just pots of seeds that you are sowing...............LOL
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Got yourself a little snow there do you?
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yes
Mark - I can't imagine snow. It's getting warm again here. I would love to see your gardens in the Spring/Summer! Looks like you have quite a few plants in containers. I love container gardening, so it's neat to see someone else using them too!
I am going to start a another thread at you request. I didn't even realize that it had gotten that long. So here is the link to the new thread:

Oh Becky,
I just came across a site created by frostweed a DG member here in Texas. Go to this site and in the right column select "Aquatics and Bog". The climate here is a lot like Florida in the Bog areas anyway. The list is really long and you might find something crazy you'd like to plant in your bog area.
http://www.npot.org/ They tell if any are larval hosts too, yet not exactly which larvae..
I really liked the "American Water Willow Justicia americana".
Just thought ya might like to have a look..
Deb
Amazing all the plants listed on that website, Deb! I like the Lizard's Tail. Cool looking plant! :-) The American Water Willow Justicia americana is really lovely! It looks like the flowers are small? What do you think?
Thanks for posting that website! Very extensive list!!!
Yw Becky.. Not all of them have pictures, but we do have the web,
Here was another I liked.. Really has a sturdy looking form.

Ooooh! The yellow flower is really pretty, too! I'll have to look online to see who might be selling this plant. Thanks for the suggestion, Deb! I like it!
I started a Part 2 for this thread because it was getting so long. :-)

Yay! Mark has broadband not dial-up! Welcome to the world of quick connect! I remember dial-up from several years ago. I will never forget the sound of the phone dialing up my server! LOL!
Yep, and I now don't beat my computer with a stick anymore whilst shouting HURRY UP YOU */+* THING!!!!!!!! LOL
