Yeah. I also started sowing late Feb so mine have not been there too long. I have Dill, lupine, gallardia and daisy. WOO HOO....since I sowed a bunch of each I have lots of seedlings. I am keeping it as simple as I can and sowing lots of the same things. Karen |

| Congratulations Karen!! Happy sprout dance happening! That's great news--are any of those seeds I sent you? Guess I should go check my containers again. Not too many sprouting here with this frigid weather. Eileen |

| The gallardia from you is still waiting to sprout. The ones that sprouted were a pack I collected from one plant I had. I think yours are next. The rest are still dormant for now... I am hopeful spring is on the way. All the painted daisy and foxglove I sowed last year is coming back nicely in the garden beds. I hope those bloom this year. Karen |

| I'm in zone 5/6 here and just found a few sprouts outside today too - sweet peas and canterbury bells. Sweet peas never seem to mind the cold much but I was surprised to see the canterbury bells and their tiny delicate seeds starting to open. It's pretty cold here for March and even though this is the time I would expect to see sprouting, with the 20 degree weather we've had I'm shocked anything decided to grow! LOL* |

| We had some warm days recently so that might be why I have sprouts. I was happy but glad everything did not sprout. I am lazy and don't like watching them etc... Now I am browsing for interesting tomato seeds and tomato plants. I want a big crop this year. too many to eat would be nice lol |

| Karen - do you want the tomato seeds I harvested from my grape tomato and Stupice fruit last year? I've got about 3 trades' worth I could send you. I accidentally spilled them on my desk so they may be mixed together but once they take off, you'll know which is which--the grape tomatoes (from Diane's Flower Seeds) grew 9 ft. tall last year. I think the seaweed extract/worm poop tea I fed them might have been part of the reason they grew so tall. Anyway, they're yours for postage. |

| gardenweed_z6a that would be great. Stupice is on my list to purchase.... I will send you an email. you are so very nice to share!!! Karen |
