I know some of you probably think I ask a lot of stupid questions but Wintersowing has really opened my eyes and mind to growing flowers via seeds. Before 2009, it was not unusual for us to spend as much as $500-$700 for starter plants, and mulch; and most of what we bought was annuals. The only flower that I knew how to collect the seeds from were marigolds..I have learned so much from the gardening website forums and from experienced gardeners so willing to share their gardening experience and knowledge.
I know I probably ask some stupid questions but isn't that a way of learning? The internet has broaden that knowledge, as well as the desire to be able to do things an easier way than all the technical writing that blows my mind and I find boring. Thanks to all for your kindness, your patience and generosity in sharing in many ways. My flowers and I Thank You!
