Beans for dry beans, I don't know. Maybe. Not using them well through the winter. Edamame soybean hasn't grown well last few years. Maybe some more Asian greens. And, flowers, flowers, flowers .

* new-to-me

Steve, my faux pax yesterday included LOTS of annual flower seeds for starting. I'd be pleased to share some with you and other friends here. There are usually way too many seeds for my flower spaces.

Actually ordered my seeds yesterday, from High Mowing Seeds in Vt. I love their philosophy and their quality. Visited them once years ago- and have been hooked ever since. Always an exciting day, making all those decisions!

Wow. I'll post mine over the weekend

Well I just got started with my ordering.
My experimental* tomato order will take the longest to receive (about 4 weeks) so I put it in first. These will be; Rutgers 250, Ramapo, Moreton and KC-146. These tomato seeds will be coming direct from Rutgers and I hope they do well.

* New seeds that I'm trying to see if there worth trying again.

Click to expand...

steve have to ask... with such an extensive list..... what do you do all that produce though the season?

It doesn't necessarily translate to lots of produce, @majorcatfish .

Some of those varieties will only provide a taste of something new, or something old . The tried and true will have a little more space and, if production is adequate, will show up on a farmers' market table.

That will pay expenses but, since most seed will last more than a couple of years, miserly storing of old seed while buying a little more than needed for 1 season, can provide a patchwork garden. It becomes kind of a "rotate your stock" with 4 from column A and 4 from column B kinda thing .

Patchwork Gardens. Hmmm?
