    no gardening going on here yet. we still have bits of snow here & there melting away. Only in the 40's. I just been hanging out in Facebook keeping up with my family-great way for me to keep in touch with them.

    An individual can look at flower and seed catalogs. Flower beds can be planned.

    @Cayuga Morning, Do you know how old the seeds are?

    Some of the seed packets say. I did a quick look; some are a couple of years, others are years old!

    @Cayuga Morning, Will you plant the seeds that are years old? Would they germinate?

    Hi Petronius

    I'll do a seed gerumination test first to see how viable they are.
