HOORAY FOR SAVING THE PLASTIC PLANTERS! School Projects are great but please remember other kids' organizations: YMCAs, Sunday Schools..>>>> My DD is a Den Mother and already had those little boys planting seeds that will be plants they can give to their moms on Mother's Day. That's So Sweet! (sniff) And remember the Girl Scouts and their little Brownie sisters, too. They all love doing these kind of things. And having come from that kind of background, I can tell you for sure that any NEW idea (even if it's an old one) is usually new to kids and they will jump in and learn and have fun and love it. Spread the joy!!

Hi there, I have LOTS of Jerusalem artichoke. They are the round tuber type. Would be interested in a trade for flax and mullein seed. Send me an email if you are interested. mjr r

Michelle, I'll ride over with you if you want. Looks like a long drive. I could meet you in Avon and we could go together from there. If you'd like bring any or all of your beautiful children! Let's take a walk on the beach to keep you calm - LOL! Marlene

Puberula x karwinskii (the one from UC Berkeley) is a very tall sage, and weaving it through a fence will help with wind resistance. As far as I know, puberula has subspecies status to involucrata. There is a distinct difference between the horticultural forms of available puberulas and involucratas.
