HEY - I GOT MY SEEDS.

I ordered $52 worth of seeds. If that sounds like a lot of seeds, it is because that is a heck of a lot of seeds! I ordered them from Territorial Seeds from Cottage Grove, OR. They have the coolest full color print catalog which you can order here for free. If you have never read a seed catalog, and the idea sounds silly, I recommend that you get one, cause they are #1 free inspiration and #2 just plain interesting.

So, what does $52 buy you these days?

Kentucky Wonder - Green Beens
Cannellini - Dry Beans
Early Wonder Tall Top - Beets
Vancouver  - Brussels Sprouts
Belstar - Broccoli
Mokum - Carrots
Painted Mountain - Ornamental Corn
Precocious - Sweet Corn
Valmaine  - Romaine Lettuce
 London Springs Lettuce Mix - London Springs Lettuce Mix
Italian Saladini Blend - Mixed Greens
Costoluto Genovese - Heirloom Tomatoes
Mortgage Lifter - Heirloom Tomatoes
Cascadia  - Snap Peas
 Oriental Giant - Spinach
Altaglobe  - Radishes
Calendula Neon - Flowers

So that is a lot of seeds.

Also, a camera update. As of today, it  is on a truck from Wilmington, OH heading toward Elk Grove Village, IL.  James W. Denver is buried in Wilmington and Johnny Weissmuller was born in Elk Grove Village.

As promised, I will have more on soil coming soon. Today, tho, the seeds are the star.
