I hear ya' Lee Anne! I'm always happy to have free reseeders.

Just had to share though… last fall I had to redo the raise herb bed. There were three things in there that I counted on reseeding: dill, calendula and petunia. But I desperately needed to add 3" of soil or so. So I added it and tilled it all in.

Somehow, the seeds still made it to the top, where I have a nice crop of dill and even a couple of calendula and petunia (mostly dill though).

It was a nice surprise.
