Natalie said:Dennis, you will probably be surprised, more than anything!
I’m just hoping there are a few pleasant surprises awaiting me! I’ve read anywhere from 1 in 200 to 1 in 1000 end up being introduction-worthy. I imagine the suspense of waiting for the first true blooms of seedlings will be unbearable. I’m sure at first I’ll be thrilled with anything half-way decent. They'll be my own children, after all. I can't imagine the pain of having to compost the ones that don't quite make the grade. Hybridizing must be very bitter-sweet...

Dennis!!! You are going to love it here.
http://garden.org/i/s/thankyou... I think I will. And that could be an existential threat to my freetime. But that's OK!

I was having a VERY difficult time holding back on my original purchases for this Spring. Sometimes choice can be overwhelming, and I was definitely experiencing paralysis by analysis. I tried to convince myself I didn’t have the money, time, or landscape space for more. Somehow I have a feeling that come next fall I’ll be fighting that same battle. There really is always room for more, isn't there?

As you know Spring sure has a way of cruelly teasing us with a few days of warmer weather only to go back to lows in the teens like the past couple nights. A couple weeks ago we had a warm tease and I actually got a start on some of the beds. Sounds like next week will be pretty nice and I’ll definitely be out there. Will be sure to post a few pics for you all…

:lol: I actually did say that didn’t I. Mission impossible? I'm sure some day I'll think back about that as I am standing in the middle of my giant seedling bed and laugh...
