some of the taller plants are strong enough to stay up by themselves without support. If you are concerned about tall things flopping, then just plant them closer together than they should be (looks nice and full too) and then plant some shorter things in front and around them so that they can support the taller plants. If you are just planting annuals in a certain area then I wouldn't worry about the spacing that is suggested on the seed pack. I will usually plant about half or just over the distance suggested if I want a really full look in an area. If the suggested spacing is say 18 inches, then I will plant anywhere from maybe 10 to 12 inches, depending on the expected bushiness of the plant. Perennials of course are going to be a more permanent plant in an area and you should leave 'growing room'. Probably not a perfect way of doing things :) but it works for me. Others may have other ideas for achieving the nice full look. gg

I took a look at your picture, and wonder what (if anything) you used to cover the Folgers Canisters? I'm a newbie and under the impression that you're supposed to have a cover with holes in it. But . . . I didn't see any. I have lots of the Folgers Canisters from my worm composting. This would solve my hunt for more containers! Nancy in WI where's it's downright "nasty cold"

Go, be fruitful & multiply! (ie: tell your friends, family, and anyone who will listen!) The other day I redirected a solicitation from a JW into a mini-toot on WSing. I should have exchanged pamphlets with him, but didn't have a WS one at my fingertips. That would have been funny (thank you for the pamphlet on how to 'grow' my offspring...here's a pamphlet on how to grow your gardens!)

Proudgm,

Did you get my email? I sent it through GW sometimes my mail doesn't go through here very well, so if you didn't get my mail I will send it again from my ISP.

Thanks Ted

I still have seeds for a SASBE. Many who said they wanted them didn't send their envelopes. Email me directly if you're interested. Becky

Becky was so generous with the amount of seeds she sent me!

My problem being I don't know all the latin names of the flowerseeds she sent so I'll be surprised with what comes up when I plant them after I get back from winter vacation.

Thanks Becky!!!

Thank you SO much, Becky. I was sooo happy to get varieties that were on my list, and one that I was dying to get! (almost put an order just for it, I'm so glad I didn't!). I hope you have a lovely wintersowing season, and I can't wait to see pics of what pops up in the spring. Thanks so much,

Thanks.

Do to the amount of seed requests I have had the offer is currently on hold until I catch up and see what I have left. Unless some of the other GW members would like to send their extra seeds for me to distribute. Thanks.
