Closed!! 2011 Spring Seed Swap

[Sumatra503]

Tilled up the garden a bit today. These have to be the biggest worms I've ever seen! Guess I know my compost works.

Just when I thought it was safe to plant outdoors there came the frost advisory. Plenty of frost and my plum blossoms are starting to open. Yikes!

YIPPEE! I finally found what my dad did with those lemon basil seeds. I found some Groud seeds too! Very happy and still have time to get them in the ground

You so KNOW that is what happened! I found he had stuck them in between some other papers . . ..

WHAT ? ? ? ? Where in the world do you live?

SNOW ? ? Are you sure ? ?

Maybe that was just SALT falling from the sky OR really BIG rain drops!

I wish it was salt. Nope, it was big, fat, fluffy snowflakes. (I'm kind of an expert on snow) I live in Iowa. It all melted though, so I can get out there and plant some of these wonderful seeds!

Planted cuccumber, zuccini, 3 kinds of tomatoes, and a giant pumpkin seed today. I also planted my flower garden.

I have planted my big garden already. Actually twice. Stood under about a foot of water in the mid to end of February so we were finally able to get in to retill and re plant the early stuff. It is now under about 8 feet of water with no end in sight. My little garden is partially planted with just enough to supply my house and my moms. onions, brocoli, bell peppers, lettuce, and cabbage. My aunt has plenty of tomatoes to supply half our county! The big pumpkins are started and are still in the greenhouse. Hopefully they can wait until the water goes down!
