Couple of seed catalogs arrived yesterday, including Burpee's, which

Now, if only we all aren't blown away before I get my order in, it
arrives, get planted and produces results!
We haven't gotten any 'seed' catalogs (fruits & veggies) but we have
gotten some nice nursery (trees/other plants) catalogs. Amazing the
type of growth that some of them state about their tree seedlings.
Oh, we get the tree/plant catalogs, too, but Burpee seems to be among
the first.
We buy our trees and bushes from local garden shops. There's one up near
Annapolis called Homestead that is topnotch. But veggie seeds and some
flower seeds I buy from Burpee, and have for 50 years.
I don't do a veggie garden.
I don't have the patience for it.
Besides, I can buy the produce cheap from the locals and the wife puts
stuff up for the long term - no fuss, no muss and the costs are about
the same. :)
Later,
Tom
