There's nothing quite as cool-looking(temperaturewise) as BLUE flowers. I grew Phacelia a few years ago, best blue i ever saw, next to cornflowers. The bell-shaped blue flowers with icy-white anthers were beautiful, and stirred up images of cooler weather. They do have a short bloom time, hot weather just about stops the show, cutting back helps somewhat. Give 'em a try, i believe there are 2 or 3 varieties. Good luck, and enjoy.

Whooooohooooo! The Robin landed and it is a real fatty. I have my seeds ready to put in and will try to make this a quick turn around. Sue, the DC will be 0306 3030 0000 6669 4123 and I will have it scanned at the counter. I will do my darndest to get it back to the post office this afternoon and have it winging its way to AZ. Thanks for a wonderful Robin and Happy Gardening to Everyone! Brenda

I have delayed the robin again girls. I am so sorry but I have been in the bed on and off for the last few days with a terrible headache from my allergies. For some reason they are trying to do me in this year! I will get it out first thing in the am. Was hoping to drop it in the mail on my way to the doctors office tomorrow, but they called me back and cancelled my appointment. So I will suffer all the way to the mailroom! LOL! Hope it gets there fast! Brenda

Hi Ladies! The Robin was waiting patiently on my porch for my return home from work yesterdayÂand how pretty she was dressed up in her gardening theme! Whomever decorated this box really did a cute job I have zero or less artistic abilities so I can really appreciate the talents of others! : ) First and foremost, I want to thank all of you for your gifts of seeds and "presents"! I really appreciated your thoughtfulness here  more than you can know! I have been blessed to come to know such kind people  kindred spirits in gardening, IÂm sure. So thanks bunches for everything!!! Secondly, I must thank all of you (Blue and Green Groups alike) for doing such a wonderful job with the Fabulous Favorites Robin!!! It couldnÂt have been the success it was without all of your contributions, feedback and continuing efforts! NowÂit seems that the "box vote" for the second mailing was almost unanimous! I will be mailing just one box which I hope to mail on Saturday, but most likely it will go out on Monday. I must fatten her up before her long flight out! For your general information, the Blue and Green Robins had left my home on September 4 with 200 packs of seeds contained in each. The Green Robin made it back home with 215 packs and the Blue Robin made it home with 167. (She must have dropped a few packs of seeds in her flight LOL) sooooo, I am going to try and fatten the Blue Robin up a bit and make up the difference of the 33 packs of seeds before she goes out so we can at least have 400 packs of seeds in one big box to choose from. Whew! That was a long sentence, wasn't it? : ) Anyway, I will most definitely try to exceed that numberÂand I will let you all know when she flies out! So everyoneÂstart getting your seeds ready and decide what your new Fabulous Favorites Seed will be. This time, you will pass your favorite seed on to the person next on the mailing list! Also, IF you want to include just a few seeds of your favorite for me that would also be most acceptable and appreciated...but I will leave this entirely up to you! : ) I have had one request from a member to be placed near the top of the list due to a travel situationÂso if anyone else wants to be placed in a special order (top or bottom)Âplease let me know before Saturday! Thanks again everyoneÂand there's more fun to come! IÂll be notifying you again soon regarding the mailing of the next Fat & Fabulous Favorite Seed Robin! Smiles - Lisa
