from Parks. I've been using them for over 20 years. Can't wait to start my seeds. Come on spring.

I know that you are excited. So what did you order?

Will you direct sow, or are you going to winter sow?

I ordered mostly flower seeds thinking, but knowing it won't happen, it will keep me out of the local greenhouses and from buying a lot of potted flowers!!lol I ordered some johnny jump up seeds because I think I messed mine up from last year. I let some go to seed but then added soil to the pot and planted flowers in it. I'm quite sure I smoothered the seeds. I ordered geranium seeds and pelleted petunia seeds. Hopin g to grow some petunias from seeds. Also lavataria. Want to try my hand at that. Had to get some foxglove seeds also. They are a must in my garden. Just love them. I cut down on the container plants last year but think I am going to increase that again. I will be retired this spring and I think I will not be happy with just 25 containers. As you can tell I am love with container flowers.

25+ Containers? GULP!

That's a whole lot of seeds - can't wait to see how well they do for you.

I was in the local Dollar General today and picked up several packets of seeds @ 2 for 1.00. Got 2 kinds of morning glories, 3 kinds of sunflowers, some zinnias and some hot pepper seeds.

These will all be direct sown.......I am not too good with containers, but love seeing (and sometimes trying to copy) what others do.

edited to add: you should check out Patty Louises post, then dig out some of your containers from last year. I might find some that I could copy ;o). We'd all enjoy seeing the pictures too.
