Hello, I'm going to close the offer for now. If I have any seed left over, I will reopen the offer. If I haven't emailed everyone who posted here I will in the next few days. Thanks Jim

Here is a cheap and easy way to eliminate slugs. Mix equal parts clear ammonia and water in gallon jug. Add 2-3 tablespoons of Murphy's oil Soap, mix and pout into spray bottle. Go out after dark with a good flashlight and spray mixture right on the little buggers. They instantly turn to slime and die and fall off plants. There is a lot of satisfaction with this method. I have reduced the slug population to almost nothing using this spray. The ammonia will not hurt plants, mixed with water, it is almost pure nitrogen and really makes the hostas green up. Do this for 3-4 nights in a row and then couple times a week after. In the fall, be sure to check the grass. We found that's when they are out "making whoopie" for new babies in the spring. We had them so bad a couple years ago, DH mixed this in a 3 gallon sprayer and would use it all in one night. My Grandson loves to say on a warm evening, "Hey Nana, lets go hunt slugs. The Murphy's oil soap will remain on the leaves and when those baby slugs you see eat the leaves, it will give them a fatal case of the trots. Just what they deserve! I have used beer traps, but found this to eliminate them much faster and I don't have to dump the dead slugs out.

Hello, I sent an email too. Thanks for your kind offer. yvonne

Of course, the finches always love the echinaceas. Most of these seed heads are already gone. When I walked past where they were, the birds would fly up out of the border....I finally realized they were eating the seeds of flowers. I will pay closer attention. I left tons of bronze fennel seeds on....will check and see if they are gone.
