At the end of the season they were maybe 10 inches tall. Since they are annuals in my climate I forgot about them. The next year though they came back, reseeded and then for some reason they did VERY well, 3 feet tall. They seem to like things on the dry side.xxxxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08568937298222307017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11123046.post-46524981486962383502007-06-22T19:25:00.000-07:002007-06-22T19:25:00.000-07:00HWM: Now you're talking!Diana: Gladly.

Is it any wonder with all the seeds that didn't come up that I doubted the cucumbers?

I'll look it up. By the way, I recently purchased a book for Lucia called <I>Zinnia's Flower Garden</I>, by Monica Wellington. I know how hard it is for all of us to wait for our seedlings to grow, and thought the book would help. (I also put up little signs with pictures of the plants that are supposed to grow.) Speaking of plants... my cucumber seeds wouldn't grow, and they wouldn't grow, so I bought some starts. Now, the original seeds are starting to grow. Um.... do you need any cucumber starts?Saints and Spinnershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733517166056974501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11123046.post-15813790568837255412007-06-22T09:06:00.000-07:002007-06-22T09:06:00.000-07:00The original title is The Color Kittens by Margare...The original title is The Color Kittens by Margaret Wise Brown. It is written in verse.It's a fantastic book!<BR/>One part goes (from memory)<BR/>And in all that brown the sun went down... it was evening and the kittens fell asleep in the warm dark night with all their colors out of sight and as they slept they dreamed their dream, a wonderful dream of a red rose tree that turned all white when you counted three, one two three....<BR/>The Provensen illustrations are wonderful! Golden books recently reprinted the whole story (it had been shorted during the 70's).xxxxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08568937298222307017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11123046.post-43343091929219436292007-06-22T08:33:00.000-07:002007-06-22T08:33:00.000-07:00Diana--What is the original title for The Color-Bl...Diana--What is the original title for The Color-Blind Kittens? I confess I have no idea.<BR/><BR/>HWM--A spoof on Cinderella is a good idea. However, there are so many satires of fairy tales out there that I'm stumped as to how I would put a particular spin on the spoof. Of course, <I>The Egyptian Cinderella</I> is ripe for derision.<BR/><BR/>Lady K--Thank you!
