Seeds to Flower

I like Johnny's Selected Seeds catalog. Looking through it I found something I want to try.

Baby Blue Eucalyptus, because I've never tried to grow it, and a new Gomphrena color this year called Sequin. Gomphrena (Globe Amaranth) is easy to grow!

The Growers Library at Johnny's online has a guide to Edible Flowers. It seems they are making a comeback. (again). Very nice brochure with photos of vegs/fruits, herbs, and flowers with lots of great information about growing, harvesting, and storing.

Some edibles which I forget I can eat:

Marigolds
Borage
Nasturtium
Viola
Calendula
Squash Blossoms
Bachelor Buttons

Some flowers of salad greens and herbs that have bolted are edible, too, but not the leaves.

Time to order some seeds!
