Four bathrooms?? Who gets to wash them all?
Are they hot peppers? They need heat to germinate. Lots of heat. I am in 'list making' mode. I won't start anything before April 1st (unless I have some sort of manic seed planting attack). I am working out what seed to order and what's left over from last year.
We haven't sold our house in CA yet. We have an Ume tree in the yard. My husband is visualizing one more batch of umeboshi before we list the house this spring. That means I have to grow a LOT of red shiso. Last year, I had a complete shiso crop failure. I made 20 gallons of Ume-boozo (plum wine) instead. Happy Japanese relatives - not so happy Hubby.
I bought some okra from the Aisian grocery yesterday. Yum-yum! MUST order okra. Have you ever heard of Kitazawa? My father in law worked with Mr. Kitazawa back in the 1930's at my father-in-law's father's nursery in Oakland. My father-in-law is 103 so I suspect the original Mr. Kitazawa is no longer with us. But their seeds are incredible.

Happy planting! I LOVE this time of year.
