I Can't Help It ...

I can't help it .... it is March .... today it is 73 degrees ..... but in 3 days we are suppose to have snow ... another 8 weeks and I can plant flowers ..... after last summer's drought and horrible heat I wasn't going to try to grow anything this year.  I just can't help it ... I am pretty sure I am going to have to plant something.  I know I will be planting Lantana somewhere, and Verbena in my tipsy pots.  Last year I planted over 300 Morning Glory seedlings that I grew in the house.  They all died in the heat but I will try again because I just have to have Heavenly Blue Morning Glories.  Oh, and cherry tomatoes.   I received 3 seed catalogs in the mail today.  I never plant from seeds, I buy bedding plants from a local greenhouse, except for some things like Morning Glories and Cosmos.  I am saving toilet paper rolls to use for planting Morning Glory seeds.  If you live in my town and will save toilet paper rolls, or newspaper for me I will use them to make seeding pots.

My lifelong desire is to have one of those little greenhouses. Wish we both could.
