I've been looking to get C. Pink China to try and overwinter here and I see BB carries it. Along with lots of others. I hope you've noticed the Castor Bean. You were right about delaying direct seeding until it warmed up a bit. These 2 were flattened last week by a storm w/heavy rainfall but I staked them up that evening and they seem to be doing fine.

Now if I can add enough diversity to my Cottage Garden, maybe....

This gardening is becoming very rewarding.
