Thank you so very much!

RE: winter sowing rules!!!!

Some of my containers are window boxes that I covered in plastic bags with slits in them, so they already have places. I think I have about 30 some milk jugs. I have a lot of baggies and take out containers too. Some of them will have their HOS put into bigger pots, some into what ground I have, in between my already established perennials. Some of what I have I may have to cut back to fit new things in, not sure yet. I somehow doubt I will get that great a yield from all these things. My first set has, not-great, soil, but I want to see how they do anyway, and I'm sure I made all sort of other mistakes too. I don't know how to post pictures! If I did perhaps I could show you my sad little winter mess of a garden, which is hopefully to soon be a friendly Spring oasis.
Thanks again for sending me over there!

Hi Audrey,
I'm so glad to read of your wintersowing success. My garden sure has benefited from it.
Are you still planning on taking part in the plant-swap this week end?
Let me know
George
