Glenda did you buy some daylilies lately? I don't have any of the returns: Happy Returns, Red Hot Returns, Rosy Returns etc and have just gotten interested in them. Wilds had a couple of them that I just ordered but I want more I think.

Carol, I hope you and Al have had a good night's sleep and some peaceful, quiet, restful time at home. I don't think you made Al sound bad but merely human like the rest of us. I think I have the lazy gene that Diane mentioned and I DO like soda and sweets and all the bad things that I shouldn't like. Tim has the memory gene that means everything you tell him stays in his mind for about 3 seconds at home. At work he never forgets anything. Hmmm? I'll have to think about that. Susan, Hope you're feeling better soon and that the pain in the side is not a syptom of something medically unpleasant. Lately, everyone I know is having gall bladder surgery. Wonder what that is about? Do gall bladders expire? Mrs. Frodo, My husband would die if I started running and fetching things for him. He'd think I knew something he didn't...like maybe he was dying of a terminal illness or something. However, he never remembers where anything is. I have to tell him where "it" is or he can't find anything. Keith, Congrats on the new job! That's great news. Chandra, I think people already have correctly identified most of your peppers. I think #1 could be Thai hot but it also could be any one of the dozens of ornamental varieties of peppers sold by various nurseries, stores and seed companies. They usually are sold as ornamentals because they are too hot for most people, but all the ornamental types are also edible. Pepper #3 is the only one I'm not sure about. I agree with Carol it lacks the characteristic darkness of poblano types, but its shape looks familiar and I think I've seen it before. I'm just not sure which pepper it is. Did you harvest them green or did you let them mature to their final mature color? If you did, did they mature to red? orange? Dawn

Thank You Stephanie!!!! I was *this* close to starting yet another swap last night. As I am going thru my ever growing mound of seed packs, I'm looking forward to sharing the bounty with others! I would love to participate in this, plmk addy and I'll have my sasbe mailed by tomorrow!

Susan - my pumpkin is not Indian Doll. It is a variety I buy from Indian store and seed-harvest. As you can see in the pictures - it makes an elongated pumpkin in the garden ( my kids call it zumpkin). The vegetable inside is golden yellow ( not orange) and has a much milder sweetness. The rind/ skin is easier to peel as well. I just love the way it tastes and grows. I never fertilize or mound it but have noticed that the vines make fruit only when left on the ground rather than trellising them ( maybe they have more roots to draw their nutrition from). I do not know much about the cantaloupe variety except that the seeds have a high germination rate Yes I would also love to have radish seeds as well - never grown them before. You are welcome to pm me any time!
