I gave a talk twice to people in the community about starting veggies and flowers from seed. I am a seed addict. I couldn't believe that anyone would spend the big bucks on plants that if one
purchased a packet of it (for far less than ONE plant,) but that seems to be the case quite often.
Tonight I planted the seeds of a new yarrow mix (strong colors,)
Canterbury Bells, Sweet William, Dianthus, blanket flower, etc. This fall I will also
get milk cartons ready for winter sowing. Last year the snows came
so soon that I couldn't get out the house to do it. I have big plans for the winter sowing: day lilies, bearded iris, Siberian iris, Japanese iris, and LA iris. In three years I will have blooms.
