Melody- queasy? Really-You're not just saying that to make me feel better?
LOL! Thanks- I have been gardening slapdash- willy -nilly with flowers-for
years no money no books just whack things off -plunk them in the ground -
dig stuff up and plop them where I could-I am notorious for doing what my
neighbor calls"digging in"- you just lay something in some dirt and cover
the roots- a temporary fix til you get the right hole dug- and of course
many things just stay there and grow right up. The more intent and knowledge
I tried to apply- the more I messed things up! At this point- if I get any
vegies out of the project at all I will be happy- there is definitely a
learning curve.****** I need someone to repost the site on companion
planting please-  I  have lost it and want to double check to see that I
don't have things planted where they won't like each other.-Thanks !-Teri
PS 2000 bulbs?-WOW!
