  4. Plants! If I buy seeds when I see them coming up I think they are weeds and hoe them up!!!! You can tell I am not a very good gardener! Thanks for the giveaway.

  5. Will grow from seeds as well as plants/branches whatever. Seeds are imported and expensive so we go with whatever we get.

  7. I usually buy seedlings as I can't be bothered with all that seed raising stuff!! Just planted out all my pots yesterday and a whole bunch of vegies in my garden.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I would love to garden, but hate going outside when it gets hot... so it ends up staying on my wish list and never actually gets accomplished.

    ReplyDelete
  9. I have a black thumb so about the only plants I have are those pots of gerber daisies or dahlias that I buy already grown each spring. Then I try not to kill them before fall.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I do both. I just sowed spinach seeds in the garden, I have 4 trays of seeds started and in 5 weeks I will be buying sweet potatoes, herbs and tomato plants from my local nursery. Thank you for a fantastic giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  11. I live in Florida, where it is really hot and the ground is nothing but sand. I do buy a few tomato plants and try to grow them, but eventually the heat kills them too. Maybe one day I will have a sunny enough yard ( mine is mostly shade with sand now ) that I will be able to have a HUGH garden.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I plant most of my simple flowers by seed (cosmos, zennias, marigolds). I plant most of my vegetables from purchased plants. Thanks for the chance to win your giveaway.

  28. My allergies have caused me to give up gardening...so I quilt more! I used to plant both seeds and plants. I sure miss it.

    ReplyDelete
  29. A few years ago I did the seed thing. I grew Moonflowers (smell SO sweet and bloom at night on a vine with ?heart? shaped leaves), and a CUTE small zinnia called "?pinwheel?" It was in pink, yellow and white I believe. VERY nice zinnia - but hard to find as an annual plant in a pot.
    This year I bought begonia and some small pinwheel yellow zinnia (YAY I found some).
    All is fun - but seeds take consistency which is not my strong point this year.
    Thank you for the chance to win such a nice book! :-)

  61. Every year I try to grow veggies, and every year I fail. Usually I plant little plants. This year, I picked up some seeds to start inside and then transfer outside. Here's hoping it works! For flowers, I have some perennials that I rely on that I planted as plants, and God Bless 'Em, they come back every year. I wish there were veggies like that. Wait, asparagus is a perennial, isn't it? Maybe I need to plant that!

    ReplyDelete

  64. I love to garden; but, I haven't done so in a couple of years because I'm in a rental. I tried gardening from pots one year; but, life got in the way and I had to go home to Mother and my husband forgot to water the plants. *sigh* So, I don't try much anymore. But, once we get a home of our own, I'm determined to garden once again. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  65. I get your giveaway emails! that is how I arrived here. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  93. I live in a condo, so have no yard to plant anything in. And we have so much shade, I'd have no sunshine, so I don't garden at all. Wish I could!!! I eat a lot of vegetables, and it sure would be cheaper to grow them instead of buy them.

    ReplyDelete
  94. I live with my mother who starts tons of plants from seeds in a cold frame. Then, she goes through a process of transplanting in various size pots until the plants are large enough to go into the ground. Our soil is actually sand so it takes a lot of prep. Plus the critters are bad too. She has already given away at least 25 tomato plants to relatives. We end up with a freezer full of great vegetables to use all year long.

    ReplyDelete
  97. I buy plants, when you have crazy cold weather is a "pain" to bring plants in and out and having a heated garage doesn't doesn't appeal to my pocket. Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I start some of my plants from seed. Right now we have watermelons and pumkins growing. And most years I start my tomatoes too (but this year I'm taking a break). Soon I'll be starting my nasturtiums and morning glories. I buy my fushias, lobelia, wave petunias and whatever other basket stuffers are available to fill my hanging flower baskets. :)

    ReplyDelete
  104. I follow you. Thanks for the chance to win this book. One of my nieces just told me she'd like to start quilting and asked for recommendations on great books. How fun to give her not only a recommendation but a great book.

    ReplyDelete
  107. I generally purchase plants already grown, cause by the time I think to start seedlings it's way too late!

    ReplyDelete
  108. I do receive your giveaway emails. Thanks for the chance to win this great book!

  115. I just put some seed in last week...I have been hoarding them since my last disasterous try at growing from seed...and they have just begun to poke there little heads out through the soil!! It is all so exciting and encouraging..I think the garden can teach us lots if we slow down and listen. For instance timing...I waited until the best time to put these little promises-of-goodness in, here's hoping I can be "faithful" and protect them and care for them till the grow up. God bless:)

    ReplyDelete
  116. Most things, I prefer to buy the seedlings already growing. Things like zinnias seem to do better when you grow them from seeds-- at least for me. And this year, I am excited to try something new-- growing daylillies from seed! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  117. I follow you on GFC-- thanks for the chance to win this book! It looks great! :-)

  119. Oh I buy them ready to plant, except for salad greens! and potatoes;)

    ReplyDelete
  120. I have a really hard time "hardy-ing up plants from the seeds. I've been very successful growing the seed, but as soon as I let it get hardy in the weather, it goes kaput! Seems like we always get that late frost snafu and it's a goner. So, the past 3 years I've bought plants/seedlings. I leave it to someone else to give the plants "tough love" and get a think skin :)

    ReplyDelete
  121. I follow you through GFC. Thank you for the lovely giveaway! Looks like a great book!!!

    ReplyDelete
  122. I receive your emails :) Love them!
