Oooo, I love the colours of that Columbine mix! I, too, will be seeing what comes back and then strew already-owned seeds in what doesn't. This week's weather has completely confused me.

Yeah, we're having the unseasonably mild weather here too. It's probably just some warm air getting pushed across with another winter storm front following along behind. We've got some idiots around here that are geared up to break out the shorts already, and I find myself repeatedly pointing out that we could easily have another blizzard the first week of March...

I work at a university, so I've been seeing those kids break out the shorts all week. I can't wait to watch them scurry when the temperature suddenly drops. To answer your next question, yes I'm evil.

I planted Strawberry Candy and Ebb Tide last year! Not that I've seen much -- Ebb Tide was a bitsy thing, but it's own-root, so it might possibly grow enough to bloom this season -- but.

Oh dear... *gazes out the window* I... I worry the fever is going to take hold... must... resist... buying plants...
