It can be planted in the yard, or plant it in a pot and you will have lots of green leaves to use as green onions.

Thanks . . .potting it is a great idea! My granddaughters (3½ and 5) had a great time helping plant seeds into peat pots last Wednesday. They are going to be so suprised tomorrow to see that the cukes, cantaloupe and watermelon are already sprouting.

Glenn's coming over on Wednesday to give the final harrow to my garden and to make rows for me. I'll have to pick up more beer for him when I'm in town . . . lol.

If it is potted, you can cut off part of a leaf and add to their tuna salad and they will think it great fun.

They can even cut it up fine, I use scissors to cut mine with.

Seeds are wonderful gifts, it has always amazed me that a tiny seed can produce a tree or food.

Be sure to tell Glen how many of us wish he lived nearby.

LOL, I love men who are handy around the place.

Spring is going to come any day, there may be rain headed my way again....never enough to increase the water supply, but none suits me fine.
