SuzOH @gardenbre personally I don't have time to deal w a relationship right now, so not really worried about it :-) #seedchat-8:59 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @LeslieinPayson I'll give seeds for Valentine's Day, but not like candy or cards. Although, will give some to our kids this year. #seedchat -8:59 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @MrBrownThumb @jchapstk It really is! And reseeds itself readily. #seedchat -8:58 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @jchapstk try growing "love in a mist" it's easy and really pretty. #seedchat -8:58 PM Feb 6th, 2013
LeslieinPayson RT @Smart_Gardener: @LeslieinPayson You know its true love when they start buying you dirt! < absolutely!#seedchat -8:57 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @Smart_Gardener Me too, although they really aren't hardy here. #seedchat -8:57 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk #SeedChat None of my "love" plants are from-seed plants. Need to think on that some more. -8:57 PM Feb 6th, 2013
SeedChat #SeedChat Maybe next year we can find seed pods that are shaped-like hearts? Example: http://t.co/RUuFDTzE -8:57 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @LeslieinPayson You know it's true love when they start buying you dirt! #seedchat -8:56 PM Feb 6th, 2013 modernmiagarden I didn't know that. Hmmm. Good to know, thanks! RT @SuzOH: Gardenias mean secret love, a potted gardenia in bloom is a nice gift. #seedchat -8:56 PM Feb 6th, 2013 gardenbre RT @SuzOH: @gardenbre @MrBrownThumb I used to grow lavender roses sounds pretty + could look really interesting beside black roses #seedchat -8:56 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson Do people give a lot of v day presents? I just give to my hubby, and he doesn't garden. He just eats what I grow. &buys me dirt. #seedchat -8:56 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk @SeedChat I like the peace lily gift plant. Of all the supermarket gift plants it is usually the strongest. #SeedChat -8:56 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH Gardenias mean secret love, a potted gardenia in bloom is a nice gift. #seedchat -8:56 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Alright, only a few minutes, left. Feel free to keep tossing out "love" plant suggestions or intro a new topic/question.#SeedChat -8:54 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk @MrBrownThumb They have gotten some dark dark reds and blues, but not a true black still. #seedchat -8:54 PM Feb 6th, 2013 gardenbre @MrBrownThumb I know what you mean but if they can make a blue tomato maybe we could put our order in for a black rose #seedchat -8:54 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener As a former Louisianan, I have Mardi Gras on my mind more than Valentine's. #seedchat -8:54 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk There are some nice onesl. RT @SuzOH: @jchapstk@MrBrownThumb I love the David Austin English roses. #seedchat-8:53 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @gardenbre Do you have a named variety you suggest? Ones I've seen in person never looked black enough for my tastes. #seedchat -8:53 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk RT @Smart_Gardener: @SeedChat "VD-themed" sounds like I might not want to go. #seedchat -8:53 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @Smart_Gardener Good point. My local thrift is swimming in heart-shaped junk right now that could be used to gift seeds. #seedchat -8:52 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @jchapstk Me either. I just remembered seeing some today and wondering how long it would actually live once it's bought. #seedchat -8:52 PM Feb 6th, 2013 gardenbre @MrBrownThumb black & blue roses heheh there are some that are so burgundy they're almost black #seedchat -8:52 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @SeedChat "VD-themed" sounds like I might not want to go. #seedchat -8:52 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @SeedChat Also, if you're a thrify shopper, you can usually find heart-shaped tins like that at Goodwill. #seedchat-8:51 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @jchapstk @MrBrownThumb I love the David Austin English roses. #seedchat -8:50 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @jchapstk I don't really care about roses one way or the other. I've never gotten that bug. Maybe when they make a blue/black rose #seedchat -8:50 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk RT @SeedChat: #SeedChat FYI: Seed Library is hosting a VD-themed seed giveaway http://t.co/kQvyI0JL -8:50 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat #SeedChat FYI: Seed Library is hosting a VD-themed seed giveaway http://t.co/kQvyI0JL -8:50 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk @Smart_Gardener I don't like forced flowers or shrubs.

I love the fragrance. Aramaryllis are still blooming. #seedchat -8:49 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @jchapstk Me too. There are some hardy ones now, I'd like one, too. #seedchat -8:49 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson Last year I got a mini rose plant in a pot- its alive & well (dormant now) in my garden. Plants are great. #seedchat-8:48 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat RT @Smart_Gardener: A4: A heart-shaped bucket or tin? A wooden box with a heart cut out of the side? A red bucket?#seedchat -8:48 PM Feb 6th, 2013 modernmiagarden @SeedChat -Q4: A bouquet of seed packets (digging into @jchapstk's idea a little more) wrapped to look like a flower bloom. #seedchat -8:48 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @jchapstk There are the Belgian greenhouse azaleas. I think they are all forced. #seedchat -8:47 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk @SuzOH Oh, I love camellias. Looking for a pink one that will be hardy here. #seedchat -8:47 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @jchapstk Anything can be forced. Azaleas are big part of the winter flower shows at the conservatories here.#seedchat -8:47 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @jchapstk @SuzOH Lots of blooming azaleas in the stores for V-Day around here. I'm assuming they're forced.#seedchat -8:47 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @SuzOH Even a pink or red amaryllis would be a cooler option than roses. Everyone gets roses. Give me an azalea or amaryllis. #seedchat -8:46 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk @SuzOH Azalea's are not in bloom here until April. Can they be forced? #seedchat -8:46 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH A3 Camellia means steadfast love. I'd like one to add to my garden. I think a living plant is a nicer gift than cut flowers.#seedchat -8:46 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener A4: A heart-shaped bucket or tin? A wooden box with a heart cut out of the side? A red bucket? #seedchat -8:46 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @jchapstk And if you're creative you can make heart-shaped seed bombs: http://t.co/0FWcDgPT #seedchat -8:44 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH A3 Azalea can also mean love or romance, I wouldn't mind a pretty pink azalea for V-Day. #seedchat -8:44 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Q4: Last year I did a blog post on using box of chocolates to give seeds for Valentine's Day. Any creative packaging ideas? #SeedChat -8:44 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson Chocolate cherry tomatoes- grew them one year. Chocolate for v day. #seedchat -8:43 PM Feb 6th, 2013
xitomatl @jchapstk Plus they last way longer than crappy cut flowers #seedchat -8:43 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb A3: There's a small carrot some seed sellers call 'Round Romeo.' Tastes good, and grows well in containers.#SeedChat -8:43 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl Oh do, please do! @MrBrownThumb:If I ever get to name a plant it'll be called, "Restraining Orders Can't Make Me Stop Loving You." #SeedChat -8:42 PM Feb 6th, 2013
InkandPenstemon Just stopping by to say hi #seedchat. Can't follow much this week; will be sure to stay next. -8:42 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk #seedchat I think Valentines Day is a great time to give somebody seeds. It is time to get those seeds started. -8:41 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat A3: Do "hearts" count? Because I love Oxheart tomatoes. Not very romantic though, unless you're a lady oxen(?)#SeedChat -8:40 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl Q3: there's a tomato called Frühe Liebe, and I believe that's early love in German, isn't it? #seedchat -8:40 PM Feb 6th, 2013 jchapstk Love roses. RT @SeedChat: Yup, and it's an herb. RT@SuzOH: A1 Rose also means Love #seedchat -8:39 PM Feb 6th, 2013 modernmiagarden @SeedChat Q3: Can't think of any. I've been known to cry when the squirrels get my tomatoes. That probably doesn't count, though. #seedchat -8:38 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson My husband gets pretty choked up when the 1st tomatoes get ripe... #seedchat -8:38 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @SeedChat Gotta go with the Heart of Compassion tomato. #seedchat -8:37 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Q3: What about veggies, perennials and tree names inspired by love? #SeedChat -8:36 PM Feb 6th, 2013 modernmiagarden #seedchat What about purple hearts? They grow like crazy around these parts. -8:34 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH There's a Cardiocrinum called Love in a Puff, not to mention Cardiocrinum must have something to do with hearts. #seedchat-8:34 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @xitomatl @smart_gardener I really like the name "Love Lies Bleeding." #seedchat -8:34 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @kctomato Hey, I'd be pretty stoked to get tomato seeds for Valentine's Day. #seedchat -8:34 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @Smart_Gardener Haha, way too sad sounding! "Here honey, my love lies bleeding for you". Sad or creepy. #seedchat-8:33 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @seedchat A2: "Exotic Love Vine" (Mina lobata) although, so call it Spanish Flag. #seedchat -8:32 PM Feb 6th, 2013
Smart_Gardener @SeedChat Q2: Love Lies Bleeding amaranth? Or is that too sad sounding? #seedchat It's a beautiful plant. -8:31 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Q2: Favorite annuals, tropicals, and vines that mean love or have romantic names? #SeedChat -8:31 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @GoodGreenGuru That would not get far with me, I have enough dandelions. #seedchat -8:30 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson @MrBrownThumb You say lavender & yarrow = everlasting love. Ive got both in my yard & I've been married a long time... #seedchat -8:29 PM Feb 6th, 2013
GoodGreenGuru here honey- a pack of dandelion seeds to show how much you mean to me....??? #seedchat -8:29 PM Feb 6th, 2013 gardenbre @GoodGreenGuru I just planted rosemary seeds in aerogarden + I can see a green thing coming up - fingers crossed Kudos cookie love #seedchat -8:29 PM Feb 6th, 2013
RandSGarden @isaacs_garden Hey Isaac...I'm not participating in#seedchat tonight - but thought I'd tell you - Yes! I have! The whole list is on my blog -8:28 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat @isaacs_garden We're having a themed-chat this week. The topic is plants/flowers/seeds that mean love that you can give for VDay. #SeedChat -8:27 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @SeedChat Q1: We should include herbs like violets, mustard, & dandelions, that mean fidelity. You can't have one w/out the other #seedchat -8:26 PM Feb 6th, 2013
SolakNC @GoodGreenGuru We have a huge (6' wide) rosemary that layers itself continually, so we always have new plants. #seedchat-8:25 PM Feb 6th, 2013
GoodGreenGuru I hear it's very difficult to grow rosemary from seed- cuttings are better #seedchat -8:23 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener RT @xitomatl: @SuzOH Also not an herb, but let's not forget passion flowers! #seedchat -8:23 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson RT @GoodGreenGuru: A1 - so far I think the heart shaped chocolate no bake cookies would get the most points...<sounds good to me #seedchat -8:23 PM Feb 6th, 2013
SubvrsiveHippie @MrBrownThumb @LeslieinPayson @suzOH I planted all my herbs near the door. Rosemary is closest,#seedchat -8:22 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @SuzOH Also not an herb, but let's not forget passion flowers! #seedchat -8:22 PM Feb 6th, 2013 GoodGreenGuru A1 - so far I think the heart shaped chocolate no bake cookies would get the most points... #seedchat -8:22 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @MrBrownThumb @SeedChat A1. Yea, I'm thinking French Perfume lavender. #seedchat Better than real perfume, imo. -8:21 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @LeslieinPayson @suzOH Apropos of nada, I read once that rosemary by the door means woman is in charge of the house. #seedchat -8:21 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @xitomatl I love Nigella. There's also Mina lobata, sometimes called exotic love vine #seedchat -8:21 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @SeedChat Q1: In the "language of love" fennel is suppose to mean flattery, yarrow & lavender=everlasting love.#SeedChat -8:20 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @xitomatl One of my favorites. Takes over the garden in the rainy season here. So pretty! #seedchat -8:19 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl Q1: Totally not an herb, but there's love-in-a-mist, which is a relative of the other nigella that IS a spice. Does that count? ;) #seedchat -8:19 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @MrBrownThumb Tis true. In a previous life I worked for someone who insisted I use a hashtag that was clearly something very diff. #seedchat -8:16 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Alright, let's do this. Q1: Favorite herb for a V Day-themed gift that means love or remembrance, or have love in the name? #SeedChat -8:16 PM Feb 6th, 2013
vargasgirlred RT @SeedChat: Did any of you notice some TV show was muscling in on the #SeedChat hashtag for their show about, um, a "seed" donor this week? -8:15 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @SuzOH I thought so too. Apparently, to be a social media manager you don't need to know how to search social media. #seedchat -8:15 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @MrBrownThumb That's odd, you think they would check on that before they chose a hash tag. #seedchat -8:14 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @MrBrownThumb Screw them, I say we hoard it, and snatch up a bunch of other ones so NOBODY else can have them ;)#seedchat -8:13 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @SuzOH I think the show/TV station is Canadian because I hadn't heard of it until they started spamming the stream. #seedchat -8:13 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson Talking seeds- I've saved some Lakota winter squash seeds I'd be happy to share. They're pretty & taste great.#seedchat -8:13 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @xitomatl Maybe we should sell the .com and the Twitter account since so many people keep trying to steal & and start over. #seedchat -8:12 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SolakNC @xitomatl DM me your new mailing address when you get a chance so I can get those seeds back to you. #seedchat -8:12 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SubvrsiveHippie @MrBrownThumb Thank you! I can't wait to get more flowers for the beneficial pollinators. #SeedChat -8:12 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SolakNC Hey friends! Less drama here this week for a change. Hope things are well with y'all. #seedchat -8:11 PM Feb 6th, 2013 MrBrownThumb @SubvrsiveHippie FYI: your foxgloves went out this week, enjoy. #seedchat -8:10 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener RT @glasshouseON: Love sitting down with a hot bevy and seed catalogues. Just wondering what your favs are?#seedchat #seeds #catalogues -8:10 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @SeedChat I saw that. All the people want to steal our hashtag #seedchat -8:10 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @MrBrownThumb I mean, unless it's to complain that it's not cold enough. But no one wants to hear that.#seedchat -8:09 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson @xitomatl Thanks. I appreciate it. Looking forward to growing them. I start my tomatoes by March- indoors of course.#seedchat -8:09 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Did any of you notice some TV show was muscling in on the #SeedChat hashtag for their show about, um, a "seed" donor this week? -8:08 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @LeslieinPayson they're in the mail! Should be reaching you shortly I think #seedchat -8:07 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener I have a bit of a sore throat. Hoping it's just from dry air. Can't get sick with all the pre-garden clean up to do this weekend. #seedchat -8:07 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH @LeslieinPayson We're having the same thing in Ohio, 1 week can go from teens to high 40s. #seedchat -8:07 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SeedChat Welcome to #SeedChat @isaacs_garden@theWIVegGardenr @subrsiveHippie @smart_gardener @SuzOH@LeslieinPayson -8:06 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SubvrsiveHippie @SuzOH I've mised it as well, but for different reasons. #seedchat -8:06 PM Feb 6th, 2013 LeslieinPayson Im getting tired of roller coaster weathet- 60s this week, snow by Saturday. #seedchat -8:05 PM Feb 6th, 2013 SuzOH I made it! I've missed #seedchat too many times lately. Been busy #seedchat -8:05 PM Feb 6th, 2013 xitomatl @MrBrownThumb not as fun as a few hours ago - it's mostly worn off now I think! #seedchat -8:05 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @LeslieinPayson That and maybe some chocolate. Or wine. Or both. #seedchat -8:04 PM Feb 6th, 2013 Smart_Gardener @MrBrownThumb Not too bad. Certainly can't complain about the weather in Northern California. #seedchat -8:03 PM Feb 6th, 2013
LeslieinPayson I'm actually on time! Bad day today, talking seeds is bound to make it better. #seedchat -8:02 PM Feb 6th, 2013
