This is how I get through winter. There is one more order to arrive. Two of the varieties I am excited about (yes, I get excited about seeds) - paleo spinach and chocolate sprinkles tomato - are back ordered by Territorial. Hopefully they will show up. I don't start tomatoes (inside) until late March so there is lots of time. One of my experiments this year is gunsho - a variety of choi sum. It is taking the place of the broccolini that I grew last year - the broccolini was delicious but it came up, made heads and then bolted in what seemed like two minutes.

As ever, I was thoroughly seduced by the seed catalogs and ordered more varieties of everything than I should have. Do I really need 13 different shapes and colors of lettuce? And the same number of tomato varieties? Well, yes. 

I also started a pot of microgreens  today - they should be ready to eat in 2-3 weeks.

 

Has anyone else started garden planning yet? What are you growing this year?

Very nice!

I've only ordered from Fedco this year.

I may also place a small order with High Mowing Seeds....all seed orders from them now ship "free."
