And while I was on a roll with the weird and wonderful?
Silver Queen, burgundy, Star of David and Clemson Spineless okra: (cool binomial name too, Abelmoschus esculentus). I don't even like okra - I think it's like eating glue - but Chef D does and I couldn't resist the mixed colours.

But now, a little bit of a problem: We're off overseas in a month for a month. Should I plant these now, or later? Eek! I got carried away and didn't think of that when I was madly clicking 'buy it now' the other day. I think I will hedge my bets: Just a few of each now, and more when we get home. Is it just me or is Spring running away with us already?

That a nice collection of eggplant and okra seeds to grow. I have always been eyeing those eggplants variety. With sickness I am also behind my summer veggies sowing. But I found that if I direct-sowed summer vegetable seeds in October it does grow very fast compare with seeds that I sowed in September (tranplanted seedlings)as it does not experience any setback from cold days.
