I ordered seeds for herbs but they haven't come yet. Maybe they were supposed to come for planting in our area. But, it's been so warm I would like to get them into pots. But, Brian hasn't made my greenhouse yet so I would have to find a place inside so maybe it's just as well. I didn't order plants because it's hard to decide what we can get as plants and what we have to get as seeds. Arizona is one of those states that ban a lot of plants. Until just a couple of years ago we couldn't get morning glories. It's classified as a noxious weed. A lot of things can be ordered if they can be inspected before they get here. It's because of the favorable weather conditions and they are afraid they would crowd out native plants. You couldn't have morning glories because they raise a lot of cotton and morning glories strangle the plants and they are easily spread by birds. Oh, well! I guess I'll just wait. Maybe they will come while we are having our little trek. Dooley

Hi Dooley,
I really do not like ordering seeds or plants since their idea of when planting can take place is usually not when planting in my area can take place. Hope they will get to you soon.

Our weather has been messing with my mind too. Nice and warm spring type weather one week, then winter drops in to visit just long enough to take out what has started coming up.

Hello, new member here, just wanted to say, I order my seeds from Twilley Seed Company, they deliver usually within the same week you order. Unless they are out of stock at the time, they come pretty fast.
