Gardenweed, Duane, Bakemom, and Trudi you gyes are soooooo
A W E S O M E ! ! ! ! thank you all so much for adopting this newbiew and giving me so many seeds.
Special thanks to each of you,
Thanks especiallly to Gardenweed who has taken a lot of time helping me with even the smallest details. You are so organized and have great models to follow, such as your spreadsheet which I used your categories and added a few of my own. I love you ws pictures which prove how successful wsing is if you just have a little faith and do the simple steps. And I must mention how well you are at your Botanical names, and the detail on your seed labels. Wow. You are also have a great photographer's eye. The 2 swans with their reflection in the water was beautiful, the bublebee in the foxglove flower, the water dripping off the bleeding heart and the many beautiful color combinations.
Duane, you have been very generous! Your seeds look in excellent shape, you are very organized and neat and also very helpful with several emails, answering whatever and any of my questions. I liked the website on how to increase germination. You have a beautiful yard and some of the most beautiful ornamental grasses. You have so many beautiful flowers that I can't wait to see sprout this Spring. Cherry colored Lupines, Giant Delphiniums, numerous Salvias, Galardias and and a gorgeous Rudbeckia. So does Gardenweed have an outstanding variety of flowers.
I am most grateful to you Duane for sending me so many different seeds so that I would build up my base and possibly be able to trade, but I think between you and Gardenweed I have more than I can ever sow and grow. Yes Gardenweed sent me many different types of seeds too.
This experience has taught me about different beautiful flowers that I may have otherwise not have been interested in, such as Galardia. They can be as beautiful as a Rudbeckia.
Thank you to Bakemom and Trudi, both very helpful. Trudi I love your website and want to take all the quizzes and learn. Here's a link if anyone else is interested. "Winter Sown quizzes and puzzels fun for all"
Thank you Bakemom for distributing the Newbie packs and everyone here at Garden Web who donated their seeds to the forum.
As I promised to Duane I will pay this forward. I'm not going anywhere, I'll be here next year to pay it forward. If I'm not on the board I'm busy sowing, or filling pots, or something to do with wintersowing. I will really be singing and dancing this Spring when I lift the lids up and see sprouts. Don't tell my neighbors but I'm getting ready to do the jig in my basement after I get off this board. LOL
THIS IS SOO MUCH FUN.
Thanks also to Kent for the Japanese Maple Tree seeds. And all the information you provided.
Thank you also to River for the Desert Rose Succulent seeds.
I will let everyone know how my success is with photo documentation.
QUESTIONS?? How to proceed. I wrote down the names of the seeds on a Spreadsheet in ABC order. Some of the seeds have more discription than others. I wish I could make labels with some detail on them, like sun and water requirements but maybe just the name is enough.
What do you think?
I thought I would print out labels in ABC order too. I thought I would alphabetize my seeds too. I will have a list of all my seeds and check off the ones that I sow and the date I sowed them. Any advice at this point??
Also what kind of box, container, filing system, do you use to hold your seeds in; to keep them at your finger tips?
WSers are the nicest and bazzarist people on the web because they get excited about dirt and seeds, LOL
Whoses going to be dancing nakkid on Winter Solstice?
