Thread Name: BS: The September/Fall Garden
Subject: RE: BS: The September Garden
bobert, do you mean hyacinth bean vine -- if so, I'll PM you my addy. I'd love to have some seeds from Monticello. If those are what I think they are, the little seeds look like oreo cookies.

In my garden the zinnias, pumpkins, tomatoes, and peppers are still going. I planted a fall crop of turnip greens which are just up, maybe too late. My pumpkins peaked too early for jack-o-lanterns, but we've had a wet summer and everybody's grew fast. I scratched my granddaughter's initials on one and managed to keep it elevated off the ground so it wouldn't rot. The zinnia seeds were from a friend of a friend of a friend given out at a funeral in Connecticut. I also have a couple of cotton plants from seeds a friend gave me. They've been fun to fool people with.
