I am game for any and all seeds anyone is willing to share.  No idea where I will plant everything... I am thinking about container gardening for a while.

Love the pink and white one.  You sent me seeds one time but they didn't work for me.

Do you remember when you planted them?
Some of my lily seeds grow others dont. Take 2 years I think to bloom.

Thats great . My friend has one. but her 4 sons built it with their friends. He had a heated garage to build stuff in, an connected the green house to it . She gets excellent results there.  All day sun is a real good thing.
YOu dont need heat unless you going to keep it on cooler days with flowers.

dodge, my stepdad, who is sweet as can be but not a carpenter, started me one this past winter.  He ended up with a hernia and had to stop.  I'm not glad he had a hernia but I'm glad he had to stop because he was making such a mess.  Mr. Rape is going to have to tear down what he put up and start over.  All he did today was make a supply list.
