Started a post and it disappeared. Lol. So will start again. That's great that you were able to freeze the seed and finally you are seeing flowers. I wish I could bring my avatar from TOH. It was a picture of our beloved rescue dog that we lost in 2012.

Glad for you SG, those are sweet surprises....I don't understand your problem..do you have Internet in your computer? When I download from my camera it goes automatically into "pictures", then need to upload pics to Shuttefly, in order to post them in the forum...There are very knowledgeable people here that can help you...

Congratulations on the Zinnias Sweetgum. Charlene is right, you might end up addicted like the rest of us. And there are plenty of enablers here to help.
For instance, did you know that you can save seed from those blooms for next year? And you really don't have to put them in the freezer. Just the frig is fine.

I have for last several years frozen mine veg garden seeds. Veg garden does better when I freeze the seeds. |
