Yes, indeed, it is time to order seeds. In fact, it may be too late for the limited varieties, considering that other parts of the country have earlier springs, though you wouldn't know it today with the Midwest blizzard covering many states. We're "lucky" to have only a few inches of snow, though we have brutally cold windchills today in my area of Minnesota. My plan is to narrow down what to order this year. And I have lots of seed catalogs from which to choose. Don't worry about all that paper, though; the seed catalogs I don't use I give away during my gardening presentations.
