    I love to garden and grow things, BUT I am a finicky eater, so eeeewwww on the purple carrots and other weird things. They may or may not taste the "same". It doesnt matter, if I don't like the looks of them, there is no point in my planting it. I don't do green ketchup, or purple broccoli or whatever. I end up with tons of seeds, and plants as it is.

    I did find lima beans in the store today, so I got two packs of them, and 1 pack of regular cuke seeds. I passed on the funny looking cukes. I have not had any luck with even regular carrots, so not sure I want to waste money on them yet again. I also have seed for Peaches and Cream corn, Blue lake pole green beans, pumpkins, and sunflower seeds [very little luck on them so far], plus 4 beefsteak tomato plants. I have some petunia plants, and some pansies that I bought also. I have lots of morning glory seeds, and zinnias, etc.

    And there are the birdhouse gourds that someone gave me, but I cannot decide where to plant them. Will they mess with my cukes, or pumpkins? I have some anise seed to plant also.

    My taters are up and going nicely. I would like to find some sweet taters to grow, and more strawberry plants. I have Egyptian walking onions, and lots of garlic planted. They are doing very well. Other than the Egyptian walking onions, that doesnt even count my perennials and shrubs. I have a small bed of asparagus, but that was here when I moved here years ago, and I do not even eat that. It is pretty when it gets all feathery. I did move it into the bed with the Egyptian walking onions to protect it.

    AAnightowl, it seems you have plenty of seeds to grow. If they all produce, yippee!

    And I thought I was the only one that had to have them all. I'm out of room and still have plants to plant.
