Yes I have the white that either comes back from the roots, or reseeds. It's not invasive, though (for me). I have little plants of it in the garden, and the big one is in bloom. Susan

Hello and thanks so much for this fun swap!!!!!!!!! Shirley & Craftie2 & Corrine & Vina thanks for the congrats. It felt so good to win that I actually jumped up and did a dance. My significant other, Noel, went running for his camera so I calmed right down lol. No need for documentation... but I am so in love with all things garden and gardening that the idea of a "supa prize" got me up into the air. Corrine, thank you for your thoughts on attitude -- I think you've got that absolutely right and I'll be filing your examples in the back of my mind and pulling them out when necessary and applicable....probably tomorrow lol!!!! Have had a lot of fun and enjoyed meeting you all -- looking forward to sharing and hearing about everyone's gardening exploits and experiences in the coming season. Thank you so much Vina for brightening each day with your stories and wonderful pictures, games, etc. and for all your organizational effort!!! Best wishes, Barbara rhodes145

DigDirt, Sorry for the delay. All the seeds were sown in soilless seed starting mix, with the majority of seeds germinating about 8-9 weeks ago in small seedling trays and then transplanted to larger 8 ounce + containers when there two-true leaves emerged (about 5-6 weeks ago.) During that same I transplanted them to larger containers was when I also added a slow release fertilizer to the soilless mix. Some of the plants seemed a bit leggy, so I transplanted them a bit deeper in the containers. Many of the containers I planted in will be large enough, that I won't need to transplant them again until out to the garden site. Currently, the plants are in full sun, watered as needed and nearly all the plants have a few sets of leaves. However, most of the plants (as I mentioned in the original post) have purple stems and seems as if the growth height has "stalled" for almost the last two/three plus weeks. I do have a few that are growing very well. I am wondering if this is usual? Are they establishing their root system at this point, while not growing upward? The best way to explain this would be "miniaturized plants" no more than 2-3 inches tall from the soil line. I will be more than happy to provide you with additional information. Just let me know what your are seeking. I will post images as soon as I can. Any and all of your combined knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. TNV
