Happy New Year!!!

 

 

Happy New Year!

During the last week of November 2021, I joined the fun that my friend Anne was hosting at My Giant Strawberry . Anne was hosting, The Joyful Seed Exchange. Anne matched up each participant. I was matched up with Dana.

I received the fun package in the above photo from Dana. 

Dana received the fun package from me in the bottom photo.

 

As we start out 2022.. 

 

Dreams are the seeds of change. Nothing ever grows without a seed, and nothing ever changes without a dream.

  1. How fun it will be to see what you grow from the gifted seeds.
    Good luck. I'm waiting for my seed catalogue to arrive in the mail. It should arrive shortly.
    I love to choose the best variety for our climate. We have such a short season.

    Good luck with your gardening in 2022.

    Hugs, Julia

  3. Oh, how wonderful the Mexican sunflowers bring lots of hummingbirds and butterflies. They will be nice this Spring. That was so thoughtful of you and your friend to exchange gifts of garden seeds and flower seeds to plant. Happy New Year Carla!

  7. Seeds are so fun to have during winter! The anticipation is wonderful! The Mexican sunflowers are really, really great cut flowers. They are a lot like big stiff zinnias. I love them! You sent off some really great seeds, too. The Cinderella pumpkins are just amazing! and WART Pumpkin! Wow!

  14. Great quote at the end! Yes, seeds are on my mind, too. I have so many left over from last year. Deciding whether to order new ones or experiment with the old ones first, to see if they're still viable. Dreaming of May...
