Failure? Disappointment?

The Burpee catalog arrived. Time to pick seeds. We -- I, Robert -- went a bit overboard. Here's the philosophy: seeds are cheap, if they fail it's not that a big of a deal. Buying flowers at Fairfield County nurseries: expensive. In Fairfield County, they sell "Private Equity Petunias" and "Hedge Fund Hibiscus." We went with Burpee.

Here's the overly ambitious purchase. Stay tuned for the spring and summer:
