Look What Arrived in the Mail Today!

      The other day I commented on a post that was on the Botanical Interests Seeds Facebook page. The post was about growing poppies. I tried growing some Lauren's Grape Poppies and California poppies last year with not much luck. I planted them too late apparently. I should have planted them in the very early spring before the last frost. The Lauren's Grape poppies never came up and my California poppies never bloomed, very sad I know.

      Anyway I commented on the post about my past misfortunes with poppies and the owner of Botanical Interests commented below and told me to e-mail him and he would send replacements. So I was expecting just a pack of seeds in the mail and to my surprise I received a box that contained several different types of poppy seed, as well as a mouse pad, a calendar, and a note pad. Anyway it really made my day and I appreciated it very much, gotta love free goodies, lol.

      Botanical Interests is a great seed company. I have ordered from them for many years and have never been disappointed. Check out their site it's in my links of my favorite companies if your interested in them, they specialize in heirloom and organic seeds and they have signed the no GMO pledge.

Great Seed Companies I have Ordered from

So it's time for seed shopping and starting so I thought id share with you two great seed companies I have ordered from for several years.

www.botanicalinterests.com - I highly recommend this company. They have great quality seeds and they have good prices. They also have some hard to find seeds and many heirloom varieties.

www.burpee.com - This is a good company and they have been around a long time. They have a lot to choose from but are kind of expensive if you order online. This companies seeds are sold in many retail stores for much cheaper.
