You're listening to Away with Words, the show about language, and how we use it. I'm Grant

Barrett. And I'm Martha Barnett and Grant. I bet you've been up to the same thing I have been up to,

which is perusing seed catalogs and dreaming of this year's garden.

Yep. It's like the adult version of the Sears catalogs that you looked at at Christmas time when you were a kid.

things like diplomat or Albion or Seescape, you know? I mean, they're sort of like paint chips or something.

There's a sequence of three that I saw as divino, sabetto, orach. They're like some characters from the new Star Trek series.

Purple Passion, Jersey Night, Silky sweet hybrid, ruby perfection.

Wow.
