D’oh! Sorry about the Bonnie plants. I hope they show up by you! I was thrilled to the gills finding those Shishito peppers you recommended. :)

Another failure I’m currently having is my Nasturtium. Of an entire FLAT I have exactly ONE germinated so far. Not sure what happened. I soaked them for 24 hours prior and it was all fresh seed.

This year is just ONE frustration after the next...and I’m not even talking about the weather! Ugh! This week we go STRAIGHT to the 80’s with rain & storms!

Proud of ya on your Asparagus patch. :)

For Mothers day I asked hubby to drive me to 5 places in Grand Rapids, 30 or so minutes away. All Bonnie dealers. Everyone got more plants evidently yesterday afternoon. But no shishitos anywhere. There is still next week according to what the Alabama headquarters said. I still took a bunch of seed and sewed it in 4 larger containers filled with our garden soil. The first 3 failed attempts were all in jiffy pellets. I still want some bigger plants but will only check the 2 local stores next week. I may break down and spend 16.00 plus per plant to have them shipped from Bonnie. That really goes against my grain. If these seeds don’t germinate I probably picked the peppers too soon and the seeds were not mature enough,
