Jan. 5 Column: Seed Catalogs

It’s time for my next monthly garden column! This one is about seed viability (the shelf life of seeds) and some of my favorite seed catalogs. You can read it in today’s edition of The Spokesman-Review: ‘Tis the season to prepare.

The seed catalogs have been rolling in steadily, which sure makes it hard for me to make my choices. Once Bill has decided which pepper varieties he’d like to grow this year, we can put in our orders. And you’ll be happy to hear that I’ll publish a list of all of the veggies we’ll be growing both on this website and with my first weekly column of the season, which will run on Sunday, Feb. 23. You’ll be able to find the online list under the “Guides” menu; just look for Susan’s Garden – 2020. It’s not complete yet, though, so bear with me!

I also have a new video for you to watch. This one is on “Indoor Gardening in Winter.” As you’ll see, there are plenty of garden-related things to do this time of year. And you’ll be happy to hear that Bill helped me shell the rest of the bean pods! (this will make sense once you see the video, LOL) Thanks, honey.
