Well, I just ordered my seeds! All of them (both veggies AND flowers) are heirloom, so I should be able to use their seeds for next year's garden as well. I used a seed house here in PA that is supposed to be the country's oldest heirloom seed house, so it should only take a couple days for the seeds to arrive. I ordered:

1 packet of both red and green salad bowl lettuce
1 packet boston pickling cucs
1 packet straight eight cucs
1 packet purple poded pole beans (the kids picked this one out)
1 packet Henderson's dwarf butter limas
1 packet Thumbalina carrots
1 packet Detroit dark red beets
1 packet Amish paste tomatoes
1 packet fairy bouquet dward snapdragon
2 packets Royal carpet Assylum
1 packet dward sunspot sunflower
1 packet red American legion poppy
1 packet Iceland Eartland giant mix poppy (I think there are like 3 or 4 colors in the mix)
1 packet Larkspur

So now I'm busy getting the beds ready and transplanting some plants to make room for the new flower seeds. :)

That's correct! My boyfriend and I have enjoyed a good number of strawberries from our plants, they taste so much better than the ones bought from the store... Yummy. :3
