@Pistil I'll come over here for the off-topic! It's always exciting to wax rhapsodic about local nurseries. Sky is really close to my house so for some reason my car keeps taking me there. It must be confused about where "home" is. Whistling I had the same problem when I had a standing appointment in Lynnwood years ago - I went to Wight's every week for ages! I haven't been in a long time and actually pretty much forgot about it till now. I tend to stay very close to home (mobility issues that conflict with sitting in a car for very long) so my circle is pretty limited to Sky, Lowe's and Home Depot.

But that's one of the greatest thing ever about growing things from seed - I can do it right at home. :D Right now I'm mothering about two dozen fuchsia arborescens. ...Are you SURE you don't do container plants? Because, you should go look at pictures of it. It's not hardy to this zone so it needs pampering in the winter, but I could not say no to it. It's gonna be a long time before they're old enough to give me their own seeds, but when they do you can bet I'll be back here to share. Big Grin

This is some of them a few weeks ago:
