ok not fair I might no the answer to one of those....LOL
I'm gonna wait for the answers myself. I've been tromping around all day. No energy to go tromping the internet for answers now.
Hehehehehhe ya do some thinkignor some digging. Afte r all piggie s do root around for their food and fun. : )
LOL....fibro kicking my butt today....Star can I offer packs of mixed seeds? I haveno idea what any of the plants are they all flowered BEFORE I found DG but they all fit the 'cottage style' of gardening
perennialme. Take yoru time. Relax. Ther e no rush on this game. Gonan take some folks awhiel to try and find answers.
I wish I coudl have tromped. Been rainign again all day. My mums so beat up not sure if fidn any seed left onthem at all.
I'm lost and sorta kinda grew up around pigs! LOL
been raining here too I think I'm becoming a duck, maybe we should start trading water plants...LOL
trina, I'd just mark them 'Mystery Mix' and put the date you think they are from.
Trina.. your pic kinda looks like Obedient plant... my flowers are pink
ok....i'm just so tired of seed sorting....LOL
AMEN!
star, I was rooting around downtown for a few clothes - not my favorite thing to do, but necessary once a year or so- but could only find weird skinny mis-shapen clothes made half of plastic for anorexic teen-age werewolf wannabes or bad taste barbie wannabes. Came home only with Chinese desserts for the piggy tummy. lotus seed cakes and a few things I don't know the names of. yummy -snort-snort - oh the fat piggy tummy.
my neighbor 2 houses over has a msiive wild cottage garden, and she collected seeds for me, 38 brown paper lunch bags full, but she didn't mark on any of the bags what they are...and now my brain hurts
trina, I've got some yellow water iris that hasn't been oinked yet.
ok OINK OINK....LOL I'll take em myabe then the kid will give me back my Philo Pink Princess! LOL
you got em trina.
doing the Happy Piggy Dance....LOL
Trina, they look like miniature hockey pucks, so if you don't get to planting them, maybe they'll have some other use.
I have some Indigofera suffruticosa seed if anyone is interested. I have not bagged any, so I'm not sure how much yet.

I took a couple of WAGs, but I dmailed my answers to Star just now...
BTW, I think there's a typo in that last question. Perhaps a pig could run a 6 minute mile, or 6 miles in a minute, but there's no way he could run a 6 mile minute.
ok I am adding "Mystery Flower Mix" to my seed list
here's a pic of one of the many seeds that went in it, if you know what it is please let me know
wow did I take bad pictures...and it was raining which didn't help! and another seed going in ti
and another
and some of these a marigold, the only thing I recognized! LOL
and some of these
Trina-
Looks like some amaranth - pic 2 (the red one), monarda c. (horse mint)- pic 3, zinnia- pic 5 (lots of stuff in this pic).
For the ones that have multiple flowers in the pics, are all the seeds included? Or just one variety?
This message was edited Nov 17, 2009 9:37 PM
yeah I got some of all those in each little packet I believe, after a while though I got cross eyed so some may have more than others of certain varieties....I saved a little from each one to plant and then get Identified this spring, teach me to just accept seeds without asking what they are! LOL...there's also one that looked like a hollyhock but a lot smaller, pale purple flowers, at first I thought a French hollyhock, or mallow, but every picture I've seen of them they have stripes in the flower but these definately do not have a stripe in the flower
Ooo, I wanna guess too trina!
1-Physostegia virginiana (can't find a photo, but those seed pods look familiar and I think it was from this plant)
2-Amaranthus, Love Lies Bleeding type
3- Salvia verticillata 'Purple Rain' http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/32271/
I wish I knew about DG when she brought them to me, I would have had them identified then! LOL
and these I believe are coneflowers?
and this?
