[@lighthouse739]

Thanks for the video! please keep us updated when you're going to start these seeds.

[@sixtyplus1839]

I love Baker Creek and I enjoyed your video. Very well put together. You showed the seed catalog description, and then the finished product growing in your beautiful garden. Well done, informative, and gave me some ideas. You have exquisite taste.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi There, I'm so glad you enjoyed. Thank you so much for your kind words. 😊

[@louannshaffer3888]

I agree 💯 with the free shipping awesome thanks

[@TheScentofaGarden]

And, I totally agree with you about shipping costs being a deal breaker.

[@coloradotulips]

I’m enjoying your talk-through a of the catalogs and big box stores. Thank you!

[@HookedandRooted]

Glad you like them!

[@uscitizen5656]

I order from them every year and have never been disappointed with any items I've ordered.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hello, I agree! I have good success with them as well.

[@David-zr2iz]

What a great day for this.

[@HookedandRooted]

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching.

[@MichaelRusso-k9j]

Thanks for information on Baker's catalog. I have grown celosia or dragon breathe this year and they are great for autumn color in the garden. Happy planting,Steph!

[@rv5723]

I fell in love with Baker's Creek about 3 years ago too, that free shipping! In the past I have grown Pink Senorita Zinnia, Killimanjaro Marigold, Blue Monday Salvia, Paradiso Echinacea, Polar bear zinnias, along with several varieties of sunflowers. After hearing your recommendations this fall I ordered Atomic purple gomphrena, queen lime orange zinnia,and frosted salmon poppy. I added agastache too after finding one at a local garden center that had a heavenly scent and color. Bakers creek typically throws in a free pack of seeds with your order, and their seeds germination rate is very high. Thank you for all the info you share on your channel, I love watching, especially your own garden tours and the shopping trips.

[@HookedandRooted]

Yes!! I have tried many of the same varieties and agree!! I'm trying the polar bear zinnias this year also, and some agastache and hyssop!! So excited for the 23' garden. Thank you so much for being here, and your kind words and support of my channel. Glad to have you along. Happy Holidays!!

[@ruth8268]

Thanks Steph for introducing me to another seed catalog. I don't think there is such a thing as too many seed catalogs. Hummmm...anyway, your enthusiasm has rubbed off on me and I may try the Gomphrena (sp?). Isn't it funny, we put our gardens to sleep for the winter and as soon as that is done we are shopping for spring. 😄

[@jackmwa902]

😂😂😂😂stop!! Seed hoarder huh?

[@rennhadley4946]

Thanks for great info. Will you share your seed planting schedule? Would like to know when you planted the Gomphrena and did you winter sow any?

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Renn! I do plan to share when I seed start. My winter sowing usually begins around February and March. Unless there's a seed that needs cold stratification. Then you could get those out already. I have a winter sowing Playlist if your interested. As for the gomphrena, I will be starting those via direct sowing once the last frost has past. I'm thinking around 1st week of May.

[@hannahfox5670]

Hi Steph. I want to let you know that I received this catalog a few days ago and I love it. I didn’t know that I can get this for free. Thank you!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Hannah, Oh I'm so glad you got one and are enjoying it!

[@threestitchcatery]

Thanks so much for your lovely video! My bff sent me the Baker seeds catalog for Christmas so I ordered! I got the Kilimanjaro marigold so I’ll see how that does. The recommendations on poppies and other plants I wouldn’t try were helpful especially the lavender. I grow petunias from seed without problem mine went all summer!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there! The Kilamanjaro were beautiful! Happy Gardening!

[@ebbyo9821]

Thank you for this video. I ordered my catalogue after watching this a couple of times.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Ebby, your welcome! Enjoy your catalog 🌱

[@HorticultureGeek]

Fun picks for the coming year. I also love going thru the Baker Creek catalog and dreaming. Can’t wait to see everything blooming away next year in your garden.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there! Thank you, I'm always so excited to begin a new growing season. Planning kicks if the anticipation and helps us get through the cold dark winter. We're closer to Spring every day. Happy Holidays!!

[@cathywright4133]

Thank you Stephanie for sharing this catalog. This will be my first year with seeds. I am a 69 year old newbie and am enjoying my new found love of watching gardening videos and yours especially. I am learning so much. Can’t wait to plant gomphrena, cosmos and zinnias in my gardeners. ❤

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Cathy! This makes me so happy to hear 😊 Thanks for watching and for your support of my channel. Glad to have you along. I hope you love growing those beautiful annuals from seed as much as I do! 🌱

[@tammywinter9268]

Thanks for sharing the shipping info, I have that catalogue but have not ordered, I appreciate that you shared the germination rate is good, I bought seeds from the big store and it is pretty disappointing when you go through the work and effort and here is no germination….I think you encouraged me to order from Baker Creek seed…😊 thank you

[@SnappyR]

I'm like a few seconds into your video and I was chuckling at the amount of stickies sticking out of that catalog lol - a true gardener at heart♥ I'll watch the rest of the video now :0

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Robyn! I know I went ham with the stickies lol 😆 so many good ones! I've had good luck with park seeds in the past, but yes shipping charges are tough. If order more than a few packs I can justify it. But if I'm just buying 1 or 2, I can't pull the trigger on $5+ shipping

[@SnappyR]

@@HookedandRooted I will be using Baker Creek from now on - I had no idea how reasonable they are in the first place! My goal is to grow the purple gomphrena you grew this year!! That was my favorite Hooked and Rooted flower this year♥

[@HookedandRooted]

@@SnappyR that was my favorite annual also hands down!! 💕💕💕 Merry Christmas Robyn! 😘

[@HookedandRooted]

You are so welcome!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Claire, Oh yay! Your very welcome, thank you for watching. Take care!

[@joinmeinthedirt5186]

I loved seeing you on Janey’s channel it was great. Looking in the Bakers Creek catalog is like looking in the Montgomery and Sears and Roebuck magazines for Christmas and circling all of the toys I wanted. Now it’s circling all of the seeds I want for the garden. Agastache was my new favorite this year it’s a great performer.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi there! Thank you so much! She put together a great video. I also very much enjoyed watching the other gardeners segments. Even a few of their suggestions that I haven't grown before. Yes!! It really is like the old sears catalog, but for gardeners! Lol so fun isn't it to circle things and dream. Thanks for watching, and happy holidays!

[@missmrice91]

Thank you for sharing what has worked for you several years ago I did seeds without much success so I swore them off (other than zinnias and pumpkins because they are so easy to grow from seed ). Now I m excited to get some seeds. Thanks for the video

[@HookedandRooted]

Hello! Start small, a few new seeds a year. Cosmos, sunflowers, marigolds, and even herbs like basil, parsley, cilantro, and Luttuces! these are easy, and fun seeds to start with. Good luck!

I love ordering from Baker Creek! Love the free shipping and they process your order so quickly. Can't wait to see all of the seeds you selected growing in your garden Steph! 😊

[@coloradotulips]

Free shipping is awesome!

[@waltergonzalez5405]

I also buy from bakers creek. They are reliable and a high quality grower. I agree that each seed pack is reasonably priced, but its worth noting that some seed packets have only 10 seeds and others could have 50. You have to read the description. Also, even with reliable seed providers you can occasionally grow a deviant hybrid/cross polinated seed. I honesty believe Baker Creek is better than most, but i once grew 12 Chinese Five color peppers and one was not true to the heirloom characteristics

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Walter, I agree. I have certainly been happy with their seeds, and quality thus far. 😊

[@RevAcres01]

Perfect timing Steph my Baker Creek catalog was laying on the table. I've had great success from their seeds and no shipping fee a plus. You hooked me on a few of your tried & true seeds. Thanks

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Kim, no shipping cost is a huge plus for me. It might be physiological but I just can't justify paying $5 shipping on a pack of seeds that can be shipped for a .50 postage stamp and the price of an envelope so maybe $1 tops? Hope you enjoy the selections I've grown as much as I have. Happy holidays!

[@doriswinskie7049]

Just got y catalogue, I love it, it is so beautifully presented I want everything!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Doris, it really is beautifully done. I finally had to stop looking and just place an order yesterday 🙌 Happy Holidays!

I received my catalog also. I went through my catalog as you were going through yours and quite a bit of some of the ones that you have selected I too already had selected. I did however also order the whole seed catalog. I want to get the recipes. I am going to grow edible flowers and I'm hoping the Whole Seed Catalog can introduce me to some new recipes for those. Love your channel ❤️

[@HookedandRooted]

So fun Susan, I'm glad your enjoying. I'm going to try out the whole seed catalog next year for sure! It makes for wonderful winter reading.

[@melissabowen3521]

I totally agree with you about Pansies for spring growing, but I have found pansies hard to find in autumn in Massachusetts (Or very expensive) The black and orange are super fun for autumn.

[@openhearts3466]

I just had that idea this year to grow some pansies from seed for fall blooms. Pansies are the longest lasting bloom in the fall in my garden and do much better than fall mums.

[@cindyhewatt3406]

This is another great video, so helpful, I have ordered some seeds from them already including Gomphrena, I can’t wait to sow them. ❤

[@greenthumbelina7331]

Steph, you will love growing the Queen Lime orange zinnia seeds from Baker Creek! Mine were gorgeous, and so were my gomphrenas (the same variety that you planted). I ordered most of the seeds for my 2023 garden in December, and I'm waiting for some of them to arrive, but I already have most of them. Have fun planning and planting your 2023 garden! ~Margie🤗🌱♥☃❄

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Margie! I am so excited for the queen lime orange. Its so exciting receiving our seeds isn't it?! My baker creek order came in the mail today, and I have 1 more small order coming in swallowtail seeds. They have great sections as well. I bought just enough seeds to justify the shipping, but mostly perrenial varieties which I'm excited about. Happy New Year Margie!

Hi Anna, you are most welcome. I have never grown Ocra before. I do hear they have a pretty dainty bloom though, and is delicious fried. 😋

We have similar tastes in flowers and peppers. I loved jimmy nardellos! Trying gomphrena for the first time this year

You should check out their book catalog. It costs about 15.00 but it's got so many interesting stories about the origins of vegetables and flowers. It's a great read.

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Amy! I will at some point. Thank you. I've browsed their website and read the free catalog cover to cover already. I dont doubt I would enjoy it. This is my 3rd year ordering from baker creek. I wanted people to know that you could still enjoy the free catalog, and to bring attention to their seeds. Thanks for watching.

[@jolielutrario6930]

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Claudia! I grew zinderella Lilac zinnias. They were much smaller than I expected (the bloom), and also mostly single Petal. They didn't match pictures I had seen. Dainty but still pretty.

[@karenschrantz2307]

Do you have video or can you describe how you prep your soil for the gomphrena seeds? How often do you water in the beginning and what month do you plant the seeds? I am so interested in growing this!

[@HookedandRooted]

Hi Karen, I don't do anything to prepare the soil. My soil is already pretty healthy from the years of amending, but from what I've read they aren't fussy about soil. They just prefer well draining soil. I soaked the seeds overnight, and the next day I went ahead and planted one seed, just by poking it into the soil to the recommended depth. I planted 1 seed every 6-8" and watered regularly until seedling plants were about 10" tall. Then u backed off on watering and they were on their own. Hope this helps.
