My package arrived today. I've allowed myself to blissfully paw through it a bit, though I'd better postpone any more intensive investigation until the evening, or I will get absolutely nothing done today. Many thanks, everybody! The air plants--and everything else--looked lovely.

Yes! What fun it is!
My garlic arrived along with all the other seeds! I'm heading out to get it in the ground :)
Then to decide what to winter sow first!
Thank you all for such a fun swap!
Edited to add a big thank you to Libby for the allium drumstick bulbs! Got them in the ground too Smiling

Thank you everyone & especially Libby! My package arrived yesterday Hurray! Hurray! So many great seeds, just WOW.

Thanks everyone who sent little extras, they're great and thanks Libby for the drumstick alliums--bought a pack of 25 last fall & none came up, hoping these will do better!

Got my seeds as well, delivered yesterday but only sat down to go through everything just now. It's so fun and exciting, every baggie a happy surprise even though I know what I dibbed, and the extras and gifts—thank you all, and thank you, Libby! I've never had alliums, happy to try drumming a new beat this year!

Sorry for my delayed input here, but my seeds arrived as well. I had been on a hunting trip (came home empty handed... Thumbs down ) but they all arrived. Thank you all for the extras and goodies. I appreciate them

Deer or elk, Hammer? Isn't elk hunting really good this time of year?

Sorry to hear that, Hammer. I've never been hunting, but I know it's like fishing in the sense that you have your good days and you have your bad ones. Some days I come home with 12+ trout, then other days with 0. I guess that's what makes the whole experience more adrenaline-rushing.

Debra,
I can relate. I'm only 3 hours from my seeds, but I'm still at the hospital with my husband, and he's not ready to go home yet.
How long until you get back to your seeds?
