Re: [SpaceAgeRobin] Early melt

Hi Chris, How did you handle that Cuban heat? :)  Glad to see your 
getting an early start this year.  My seedling beds like looked like your a 
while back, now they are covered in weeds, I spent the last two days 
weeding, now I'm sunburnt and sore.  Glad I got it done, I also got to 
inspect everybody to see who looks like they are going to send up 
stalks.  
The SDB's started blooming yesterday.  My seeds from last year have 
finally started sprouting, I was getting really nervous.  They'd had some 
mold, and I had nearly convinced myself that they were all runed.  And 
then, like overnite, they started popping up, seeing more everyday.  
Here's some pics.  You can probably make out some names.  I'm 
especially curious how the Thornbird X 6th SA will turn out, 6th SA was 
the little blue one with the big flounces.  
I got a call from a friend of mine, that our Blyth order that we went in 
together,  has came in.  I'll be picking them up and planting them 
tomorrow after work.  I'm very excited about that, neat stuff to make SA 
crosses on.   Everything is going good down this way.

to find  that the two feet of snow covering my  seedling bed had 
completely melted !

chance at blooming many of my seedlings.  The snow in recent years has 
hung around much longer so I was pleased to get out there with a rake 
and remove the dead leaves and do damage control.  What amazes me is 
that all of my tiny, late planted seedlings and new acquisition Arilbreds 
have made it through with flying colors.

Superstition catalogue selections, it's tough.
