Kathy's Post - Seeds ordered (Yeah!)

Seeds are ordered! Starting with carrots, radishes, lettuce, broccoli, sweet pepper, tomato and flowers (zinnia, snapdragon and bee balm).

It's been so mild out, I'm wondering if we're going to get any snow this year. Maybe April! (Hope not.)

Last year I tried broccoli and it never flowered or produced any actual broccoli, all I got were the leaves -Which then were covered with caterpillars! And the little buggers blended in so well with the leaves I didn't see them until they had had themselves quite a snack.

I also tried carrots, but they were minuscule. Maybe I didn't wait too long, but when gardening with a four year old we are quite impatient for our vegetables to grow!

It's almost March and I'm getting very excited to get out there and start growing. Only a few more weeks.
