I started Jams N Jellies the last day of December. Information I gathered from gardening sites on the web said that they are slow growers, and they are. I now have full sized plants that are blooming. I made the mistake not to label them and planted 2 types of vinca so I had to wait until they bloomed. I gave some away to my mother and sister on Mother's Day that were not blooming. Some of the ones that I kept have since started to bloom inside under grow lights and I see 1 is jams N jellies. This is my first time posting on this site although I have been reading post for almost 2 years. I was excited to hear that someone else was growing vinca jams N jellies. I will try to post a picture tomorrow. It felt good to go to Home Depot and see their Vinca and see that the ones I had grown at home look just as healthy and full as theirs. I will never pay for a vinca again except for seeds. This post was edited by amsonia2 on Sat, May 18, 13 at 20:10

Wow, that is going to be an amazing garden. I wish mine was as well laid out. I don't know how far north of me you are, but it might be that it is still a little cool for everything to take off growing. It sounds like your soil should be in good shape. Have you thought about giving them a little liquid miracle grow. My fall lettuce, Swiss Chard, and Spinach have just taken off in the last two weeks with the warmer temps. I did give everything a little Miracle grow last week. I am in the Lufkin/Nacogdoches area. I got my strawberries and blackberries this year from Simmons too. I can't wait for those first juicy berries. Mine all seem to be happy here in East Texas. Good Gardening!!!, Misha

Amazing!

Wow--definitely worth seeing. Thanks, Jasdip! I loved the last few seconds. Will watch it again, and some of the others, probably.
