Nowadays I often open a packet and go, Is that all there is?? I think they must be trying to avoid people saving half or 2/3 of the packet for following years.<br />Karen Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306986336556283751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-30934338734531778352014-06-28T14:30:15.801-04:002014-06-28T14:30:15.801-04:00That's so beautiful! really amazing job that y...That's so beautiful! really amazing job that you did in all around.

I think I try to grow them too close together. I think they do tend to bolt if they are less than perfectly happy.<br /><br />Sweet Alyssum gets to run rampant around my garden as well, I find it so hard to weed it out when I see all the good bugs that are buzzing around it. And I like its sweet scent too.<br /><br />Your garden looks wonderful now.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07812702328134261533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-88038962155392981632014-06-27T21:16:54.062-04:002014-06-27T21:16:54.062-04:00Your broccoli looks gorgeous!

I started my first batch way too early this year and had to chuck them. Then my second batch didn't transplant well. Maybe I'll try starting them in soil blocks next year.
