I have several varieties of beans, honeydew melon, yellow squash, basil and holy basil if you can send me a self addressed stamped bubble envelope and some of each of your seeds. Do you know what variety of wisteria you have? Some of it is very invasive here. Also check out The Garden Hoard. You send in a two stamped envelope and you get six packs of seeds. You need to pick out 8 kinds of seeds you want. The only thing is you might have to wait 3 months to get them!

The plants are only a couple inches high, and I wanted to keep the soil a few degrees warmer, hoping for a winter harvest. Maybe I'll try it with a couple plants to see if it makes any difference. It's been so lovely to work in the garden during the day, in the 50s and 60s and overcast, and yet very few people at my community garden have winter gardens. It did get down to 20 in January, but it's rare for it to go much below freezing, and it usually doesn't last more than a few days. Last winter, though, we had below-freezing night temperatures on and off for weeks. But IIRC daytime temperatures were no lower than the 40s-50s. The trade-off for the wonderful gardening weather, of course, is that it costs too much to live here -- I don't own land, and can't grow fruit trees at the community garden.

Hi!! You have mail. I forgot to ask if you could also include some of the fruit and some of the shrub seeds. Thanks much.

Hello, have found this thread over the search in this forum. I still live in Germany but will be moving to Dallas soon. I can´t wait to start my yard blooming. I´ve always loved mediterranean plants and also have some of them, but only in pots and I have to carry them inside for 5 to 6 months in Germany. What I am looking for now: A forum or information sites about plants in North Texas. What can I plant outside without to carry pots inside. And of course also a veg forum would be really interesting for me. Did it ever start somewhere??? Could you please provide lots of links and information to me here, where I can get into Texas gardening. Thank you in advance.
