Your comments always make me happy :) !
We are always trying to bury seeds back in the garden after we consume the goodness. I do the same with heirloom peppers and tomatoes. They tend to sprout on their own if we have a few days of warmer temperature even during Winter time. I always carefully transplant them indoors to take care of them since they can't survive outside. The seedlings I translated from outside always seem to do better than the seeds I saved or purchased then planted myself.
I think Mother Nature just has a way of making everything better than what us humans can do.
