    1) go to the grocery store and buy an apple
    2) pick out all the seeds from the core, once the apple is eaten
    3) plant each seed in some soft soil (pref compost) and keep watering it and healthy and growing throughout the winter
    4) In the spring, plant all your seeds to add to nature.
    5) repeat next autumn/winter

    I've done this, I've planted 15 seeds (on halloween) from apples that are growing in my garden (only 13 have sprouted) and I'm going to plant them on earth day in April...

    I've always loved trees, so will have to try that :)

    You can of course branch out (no pun intended) and plant other pits/seeds.

    I live next door almost to two plant nurseries. By a lake also in a tree filled neigbhorhood full of friendly Mormons. (better then ghetto hate filled gangsters lol). So nature here is close by. My cactus decided to be smart as cactus's are and healed itself well after its injury. The top was white flesh exposed and I see it 'shriveled' up the wound, sucking the green in to cover it so it looks like a dwarfed cactus. I love cactuses too. This cactus was kinda funny with its own little pointy green bump before it fell, now its more normal looking but still sad.

    Ok I'm random.

    I don't garden for fear of killing every living plant in a 10 mile radius.

    I can't keep plants alive. It's horrible. I was supposed to water a plant for my Grandma when she went on vacation a while back and I totally killed it. I remembered to water it and every thing but it stilled died on me. :(

    I like growing things in the closet cuz for many years as a kid I have a morbid fear of something spooky livin' in there...now there is and that's cool...
    I like to drop (plant) seeds in random places especially wooded public parks and let motha nature take her course...
    soon traditonal seed will be very rare...big chemical companies are creating seeds that only have two growing cycles and then the seed becomes dormat...
    boy, the evils men do for a buck...

    I planted a tree ,the seeds took wind and landed in a local spring.They flourished and grew into mighty trees.They soon choked out the spring which dried up and now all the animals are thirsty and it's all my fault.
