    I was very good this time, although I did forget my little pumpking looking squash I wanted to try. This is from Park Seed:

    PORPHYROCOMA BRAZILIAN FIREWORKS MARACAS

    2. IMPATIENS PEACH BUTTERFLY HYBRID

    3. CORKSCREW VINE (VIGNA CARACALLA)

    4. MORNING GLORY MT FUJI MIX

    This is the 3rd year that I have ordered the corkscrew vine, they were always out of seed. I ordered online this year, a lot easier. I was very surprised they still had them and the Brazilian Fireworks. Can't wait to see them.

    Sounds like a good start on seed ordering. Can's wait to see pictures this spring and summer.
    I haven't made up my mind about anything. Many things I think I want and most years I take way too long to make up my mind.
    I just have to get in there and do it.

    I usually overdo it and then don't get everything started. I have so many seeds from trades. There is two more small orders I want to make, one from Burpee for torenia seed, which would do good in Texas by the way. And one from Select Seed.

    I received two more seed catalogs today. I go through marking things I like. DR thinks I intend to buy all of them. Mostly I just mark things I'd like to order and then wait and think about it. I do go to the nurseries and look at everything too. I have a lot of trouble making decisions about what I want to plant. I'm more of a spur of the moment buyer. Dooley

    I look at the books then go buy my plants. Is so much fun to see before buying.

    I have not yet decided exactly what to order, but I know I want to try Mt Fuji morning glory. There are so many things I'd like to try this year but I have to remember my budget!

    I envy you all - I haven't even had the time to look at the many catalogs that have come.
