Nice looking seedlings Bev!

I tried a bunch of 'Gone Fishin' this year. It is VERY slow...most seedlings are less than an inch tall with 2 leaves, while many things planted at the same time are 2-4" tall with 4+ leaves. I don't see any streaking in the GF seedlings, but there are quite a few yellows.

I don't know what jewelry has to do with it but I like it all. Here are my babies from 6th of Dec 08. Chris I even have some Fire&Ice but they are all white. They probably won't make it. BEV
I have cannas, daylilies, and red yucca growing too. I will post it later when I resize. This one was only 70kb so didn't think it was too big but it was.

Sorry I missed this post!

Way to go, Bev! Sorry about your F&I babies, but unfortunately that is just the luck of the draw with that one. I'm glad to hear from you, as it has been a long time. Please keep us updated with pics!
