RE: Stevia

Sorry folks.  I've been very busy.  Mother has been declining and the Santa
& Mrs. Claus visits have begun!  I've only purchased Stevia plants thus far
and have not tried to grow it from seed.  I'd try the T-M instructions
first.

I do love the plant!  It really is a very sweet little herb!  If I had my
way, I'd replace all the sugars around me with crushed Stevia leaves.

I had a transplant last year-  thought it died, but low and behold-  I 
re-emerged and I noticed it in the garden just last week.  It is still 
really small, but alive!  I chewed on a leave to confirm it really was 
the Stevia- yep- really, really sweet.
