I suppose so. The pack is unopened. I have grown Cosmos before, but not from this seed company. I have another pack of these I'm keeping for myself and I will direct sow them in spring when I'm pretty sure the chance of frost is past and see what I get. I guess we'll find out together. ;-)
Yep! What a cool club! The magazine is one of the best gardening magazines out there. I love to see the mailcarrier pull up the driveway and get out with a big box of some surprise or other! Between the NHGC and Listia, I'm in gardener's heaven! :-D
I cannot afford their books right now. My Mom bought me the lifetime membership as a gift. I have lots of gardening books too. My Mother and I go to our town library's book sale twice a year and go to a lot of church bazaars (all denominations) in November and December and this is how I get most of my books.
Regarding the book club, my son bought me mine for my birthday just gave it to me a few weeks earlly and is going to pay for the ones I keep. I'm blessed. Bev
