Jennifer's first year of wintersowing was memorable. I was watching her progress both here and on GardenWeb. Memorable

I'm always on my way out the door..

My pot ghettos are rather thin at the moment; I forgot one, but here are the rest.

The largely disguised pot and chair ghetto...

The difficult to access ghetto...

(It lives behind this

)

And the picnic table rock garden ghetto...that's waiting for rocks.

There's one more smallish ghetto, but I didn't get its picture yet. I did find this blooming in it, but seeing it must have distracted me from my prior mission.

Well, a monster that did herself in! I did not do any winter sowing this past winter. Only some spring sowing.

But I have finally recovered and I am saving milk jugs to do more winter sowing this coming winter. Just on a much smaller scale!

Just remember, Jennifer: It's all Karen's fault!

Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

Happy dance!

Just two shelves left to plant plus five peony. And then a bunch of bulbs.
Had to make the space for peony, iris, and bulbs

Oh my, I can see your house! Congratulations..

Our local swap happens on October 4th so I'll be dumping my ghetto, um, I mean sharing my plants with other gardeners.
(My camera died but use your imagination - my pot ghetto looks even worse than the last time I posted.)

Replace your lawn with a garden!

Me again. Still haven't gotten my procrastinator's badge. We've already had a frost here in Minnesota, and I still have a sizeable pot ghetto all the way along my sidewalk and up the front steps. I was getting it thinned out pretty well for awhile, but then I started dividing things and hit a couple of fall sales, and ... well, you know. I also bought a bunch of bulbs.
I guess I better get busy!

Old gardeners never die. They are just pruned and repotted.
