Submitted by admin on Wed, 03/06/2013 - 18:07
It's time to get planting! C'mon everybody, give us a hand and get dirty! :) Take your pick. To begin with, we request you to pick either one or two flowers to plant in this garden. If you see two names under one patch (one flower category) in the key below, please pick some other flower. Stakes go up tomorrow, but in the meantime, please stake your claim, and we'll add your name below in the key, for all to see. You're also welcome to make rangolis out of the different insects and worms you see in this patch. Please use the "Upload - Garden rangolis" tab from the menu. We hope to publish the first set of rangolis on March 11. Key with planter's name:

I know what you mean. Although I've seen them all and grown some on my own garden, I'm yet to try rangolis out of them. I'm excited and so is my family. :D
