I've gone hog-wild ordering seeds plenty of times. :')

I don't grow flowers. I just exploit them with my camera.

ooooh... something I'd never seen before... called Tigger... search for "melons"...

That seed is, ahem, a tad expensive. Yes, I am going to order it. ;')

I was looking for the Cobb melon, which I've never tried to grow. A number of varieties on that site are good for dry climates. That's good for you, but does me no good. I've had the best luck with Black Diamond (the red, not the yellow), which also happens to be plenty tasty.

Naturally, I can't find those seeds, but I just got Moon & Stars locally (and on sale; Cook's Garden I think, I've ordered from their catalog before), and plan to grow those in the clay portion of the garden, with a shot of manure worked in. ;')

Toss some flowers in there, too. Umm, I mean, plant them. Whatever you do.

Leave it to guy to google melons.

The worst that could happen if you color coordinate your garden is all the neighbors will suspect you're gay. Tell them you googled "melons" and they might hush up.

I'm going to start some Gazanias, and some Convulvulus (fake morning glory), for transplant, along with some veggie plants. Usually there are also marigolds, and often zinnias.

Ogled? Ohhhh, googled... ;') I plan to grow the crops out here, on the old homestead, rather than in the city. At home I plan to cover everything with plastic, then haul in shredded bark or something. Sick of dealing with my city lot.
