Carol,

Thanks for the detailed information. I am definitely going to try.

And I am going to get seed started by the wholesale nursery. I have learned my lesson trying to germinate hard-to-germ or fragile seedlings.

Carol, the ones I grew were freebees from you, the plants did super well! Yes very small plants at first. Thanks though for introducing me to them! I will grow them every year.

Yes, I too have encountered a few in our area whom were rudely undisciplined. Having said that, I am not going to judge a whole group of any people, place or thing on the actions of a few.

It is nice to see you posting again. You are a special person. Take care yourself and I hope you get to feeling better soon.

I hope " rudely undisciplined" does not mean they are charging low prices for consumers!

No, Scott and "rudely undisciplined" was a poor choice of words on my part.
