these came yesterday.
i'd ordered from this seed company in late winter and these were in their catalog. included in the order and received word that they would arrive to my zone ...9...at the appropriate time.
i'd had some Walking Onions in N Mex...Jim, the jewelry maker who i convinced to makes gates for me was also a gardener. Gave them to me and they grew. Back then, i didn't use the internet to know things...still the card catalog at the Library days, and he didn't know a lot either, just liked them. I used the leaf blades like chives. Didn't eat the little bulbettes that blossom out at the top...unsure....but now, i know that they are FINE and if you like onions, are wonder FULL additions to Anything...whole or otherwise. I don't know what happened to that part of the gardenyard...something about when the tree there died? or.....it's in the don't need to know card in that Rolodex of the Mind. Just remember that they were Happy to grow.
i'll plant some at B and i think also at the 3 connections for water in this system...one at A for the Pear Plumcot and Grape Vines, at the outside the A space where i turn on water and then outside the fence of B...again, where i turn on water...all 3 places leak a little. it might be enough. I'll also put some where the hose is that i turn on to fill the Doe Goat water tub at the Curry House, i turn on the hose at the beginning of Pellet Feeding each eve and it runs a while to cool it down from the heat of the day. There too. Who Knows?
and SECOND....we are BACK to the old Typepad Comment Format. Months ago, when i complained to Typepad about the Ifyness of Comments, they had suggested switching to DISQUS and i had believed them. It has since been a small nightmare...like having gone into a small claustrophobic room and turning, realizing there was no door knob. Today, reading Jude's energy at Feel Free, i thought...i gotta TRY to get out of this room....and I filled out the Help Ticket and TA DA....we are BACK! We are BACK to the old tried and true ify system....but at least there's air here, at least it's only ify . Ify is OK. I am grateful for Ify tonight.
