2012 seeds started indoors
Posted on Feb 23, 2012 12:29 AM

I am so anxious for Spring this year that I can not not get my hands in dirt... I promissed myself a few years ago that I was not going to start any plants inside... one year I had roses inside my unheated garage and porch... but this year since I am going through a tough rough spot looking for a new job - my stress relief activity is always gardening and reading... I am tired ... so I am planting seeds... 

I am seriously ambitious this year... I have seeds that my mom got in Brazil for me last time she went there... so they are right now next to the baseboard heater in my bathroom ... together with Angel trumpets seeds... also seeds from Brazil (but these I got here!) 

I will post the names of the herbs from Brazil as I translate them... hopefully they will all grow!!!! yay!!!!
