Most of them I bought late in the fall when they were on sale so we will have to see what comes up this spring. We have our glads and dahlias down in the basement waiting for spring. I may have started too soon but I have a bunch of seeds started in the basement. Our greenhouse will be started next week as well. Today we are headed to Watertown to get spring bulbs. Thats all the news right now from Gouverneur NY or as I like to call it "The land of eternal sunshine".

Wow that is a lot of stuff...like I should talk...LOL. Looks similar to my lists from the last three years. We are building a greenhouse this year also. I am excited as I am sure you are too. Good luck with all your newly planted stuff...I hope they survived the winter for you. I have about three flats of plug size perennials I overwintered in my veggie beds. I hope they make it too.

That is an impressive list! I don't keep track because the total $ amount would be shocking and I'd feel guilty if I really knew. I always like trying something new, though, so this year I bought a bunch of seed thinking it was cheaper than plants. Now I have too much seed!

6 more weeks until spring (more or less)

I am so pumped for the coming spring!! We went to our local Lowes and Sams club this past Sat. Got some more seeds and quite a few bulbs. I wish I could post pics here of the seeds I have started in the basement. I did get the roof of our first greenhouse on today. I hope to start the wall tommrow.
