Phil saw his shadow so I know it means another six weeks of winter here, though Buckeye Chuck didn't so spring will be here in about 42 days or so! I think I read someplace that when groundhogs disagree, it's a good time to order seeds - at least within the next 48 hours.
So today, I visited rareseeds.com and selected a couple of packets of seeds for my "Strangers In Our State" (still working on the titles!) themed container - Blue Bonnet Rice and Mennonite Sorghum. They will go with the coffee, Yicama and cotton.
This has been fun, so far, and I have not even started sowing some seeds, let alone transplanting others into nursery pots or even thought about putting them outside.
Still have to decide on what tomatoes and peppers to grow (I'll have room for about 6-8 pepper and 9-12 mater plants) but this planning sure helps winter to pass in a hurry!
