Supersprout memorial seeds - pass the parcel
« on: March 15, 2007, 23:22:28 »
We have discussed earlier about how many of us have seeds from supersprout.  I have just sorted out some seeds... and thought we could have a pass the parcel of SS's seeds.  I think if everyone who has SS's seeds would like to take part that would be lovely. If I do it in 2 parts...

Part 1... swaps with those who have SS's seeds and
Part 2... those who don't have SS's seeds - i could split the package that came back.

That way we all have a bit of Supersprout growing on our plots... we can then save seeds for next year and keep her legacy going.

let me know what you think.

Emma, that sounds really wonderful.  I don't have any of SS's seeds so would have to be in part 2.  I am sure she would be really pleased to think we would all have some of her seeds on our allotments.

I would very much like to be included ... she sent me seeds that I would be happy to share.  Flo  :)

I would love so much to be involved and have none of Sarahs seeds, so pop me into part two and i would be privileged to keep Sarahs memory living on in my garden  :-*

The Brilliant Fairy touched you with her wand OO !!   ;D

I've still got a few SS Pineapple toms,  and possibly some squash but like Cambourne I forgot to mark the squash when they arrived.  Going by the handwriting on the packet, I'd say they were Sarah's though.

Count me in please but be aware that I'll be awol from 28/3-3/4.

great idea..count me in..
Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

May I participate in Part 2 please? I don't think I have any seeds from Sarah - and sadly I seem to have deleted the messages we exchanged. I have bought a Victoria plum tree which is now dedicated to her, so I know it will do well.

How soon will Part 2 be inaugurated? I'd love to be able to sow a Buttercup squash this year.

What a clever idea.  I never had the priviledge of getting any seed from her but would love to have a small part of her in the garden - some of that thistle sounds good.

Please put me on the list for Part 2.

Thanks

Hi I swapped seeds with her the week before she went into the hospice and I do know which ones, she only sent me about 10 or so squash of two types, I don't think it will go very far as I have already planted some of them, the plants popped through the day she died. If I can help I will???

If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴
