Re: My Empty Garden
Beautiful!! I never knew a morning glory could grow from a basket. I have been wanting to string lines off the far end of my porch each year and I never get to it. I will have them in baskets this year. I loved them as a child. The Rose of Sharron is gorgeous, it was worth the wait.

Re: My Empty Garden
According to herself the morning glory seeds must be soaked overnight before sowing them.She wraps em in a paper towels,puts them in a saucer & then wets them. :)

Re: My Empty Garden
She knows her stuff, so I will follow that to a T. I can't wait for the weather to break. I did buy my onion sets but it'll be a bit yet.

Re: My Empty Garden

Re: My Empty Garden
We are right down near Vidalia country (south in Georgia) so those are the best around here. Very fresh, especially at the fruit markets!

Re: My Empty Garden
We have a local farmer's market that has them and they are scrumptious. Love green peppers too- I bever leave the store without them. As I get older they agree with me less, especially towards evening, but I still enjoy them.

Re: My Empty Garden
We always had them up north too but being so close to the real Vidalia, GA, they just seem better and fresher.

Re: My Empty Garden
A good way to enjoy peppers if they're hard on you lost is to grill them,brushed with olive oil. That way you can peel off the skin(which is prolly what upsets you) :)

Re: My Empty Garden
yeah - I was spoiled by the fresh of the tree/vine produce when I was a child - before this area was so built up - lots of orchards everywhere - and they all had 'fruit stands' along the roads all summer long - now store bought stuff leaves me rather cold
we do have several farmer's markets - all over the place - still lots of produce being grown not too far away - just have to plan to get to them on the proper day - and I'm not so good about that :p
