There are few plants quite as stunning at the front of the border as this lobelia. The true deep blue is so thick you barely see the foliage. Please start indoors as the seeds is quite small and will not fend for itself if direct seeded.

I soaked the seeds and then sowed them in seed trays. They sprouted well. I'm pleased with the rate of germination. Now the little seedlings are growing beautifully.

Are you organizing?

by E. Byrne from Small Town, Ky on 2010-04-06
I really enjoy using this CD, and have for a few years now, but recently have put it towards the back of my pile of guided meditation CD's. Jackie has a very pleasant voice, and I do love the meditation, but........ the parts that have me not bothering to try another of hers, (and I really do like her), the lip smacking, I can get past, but I don't understand all the sounds I hear in the background, when it's very quiet, and I'm suppose to try to relax. All the sounds start right after you imagine all the 'white light' filling and surrounding our bodies for protection. It sounds like someone is dragging furniture around, or that she's cleaning her desk while she talks. I really do like this Cd, it's just hard to get into now, it seems like the sounds in the back have magnified now. I guess, your mind really does know when you're trying to block something out. I've blocked it for years, and now I can't do that very well anymore. If it weren't for the background, I'd want to buy more of her Cd's, she's that good. I still like listening to it, but now it goes into my daytime meditation file, when in use to be my nighttime meditation before falling asleep.

GREAT PRODUCT

Jackie Haverty and Paul Armatage work great together; she is a renowned mediun and has a plesant voice while teaching you to meditate while Paul's music helps sooth and relax you. This is part 1 to her 2 CD's.

A very good meditation cd.

by Shyanna Waters from on 2009-05-24
I use a lot of meditation cd's and I am always on the look out for another good one. I suffer from insomnia and really like the ones that help me sleep. This one was really good, I was able to really meditate and then drift off to sleep. The first night I used it I slept better than I had in months and really felt refreshed and happy the next day. Now with all that being said there is one part of it that bugs me and that is something that she does with her voice. When she speaks it sounds as though she is clicking her tongue. Just think of how your mouth feels when it is really dry and parched and you try to speak but your tongue sticks to the roof of your mouth. Well that is what it sounds like. At first it really bugged me but I finally, for the most part, have gotten past it. It is really a great cd.

Deep Meditation

by Rachel A. Rowe from Kansas on 2009-03-11
I love this CD. Its great for those who are familiar with guided meditation. It is a very deep meditation and it's really neat to anticipate where you'll be guided to next! I get different images every time. Really cool.

Well done

by Darla Manning from on 2009-02-17
I enjoy listening to this medatative CD before going to sleep at night. It is clear and well done. The more you listen to it the more you get out of it.

When British composer Karl Jenkins launched Adiemus with the Songs of Sanctuary album in 1995, it was a fresh and exhilarating take on global music. Jenkins used choral vocals similar to Enya's, but spiked with a language of the imagination (merging African and Latin phonemes) and stoked by Jenkins's pastoral arrangements...

Adiemus IV

by John Prentiss from Bangor, Maine on 2007-05-06
This is another celtic cd which stirs the blood to your core. It has great melodies and wonderful arrangements to compliment the vocals. I will look forward to purchasing more of Adiemus in the future.

whaaaaaat?????

by K. A. Brown from falmouth, me on 2007-01-05
that was the first thing that popped into my head when i heard this album. i loved `songs of sanctuary' and was heartily disappointed not to also love this album. while it is obvious that the music is celtic-inspired, it is *only* the music that is so. the vocals seem to float along on their own with no relevance to the instrumentals beneath them. the language, which is the same play-language as `sanctuary', is blatantly out of place here. while with `sanctuary', despite the make-believe quality of the words, the quality of the vocal sound was instantly recognizable as south african. but those nasal tones and front-of-the-mask, brassy notes don't translate well to a celtic sound. (in fact, the whole album sounds like a clash of two cultures. as if a south african choir accidentally got routed to the shannon airport and collided with the chieftans.) on the whole, a disappointing album. if you want celtic music, buy a putumayo collection or *anything* by narada, clannad, celtic woman, etc. don't buy this album.

Good...Although two of the Songs are on my Ipod...

by from on 2006-01-23
My favorite songs are "Cu Chullain" and "Math was a Wizard". Cu Chullain is a good song for a ballet performance. By the way, I own these two songs on my Ipod! Meghan :)

New Age with an eclectic blend of styles from across the musical map!

by Paul Weiss from Dundas, Ontario Canada on 2005-11-22
Some earlier reviewers would suggest that this isn't up to the standards that Karl Jenkins achieved in some of his earlier output. I couldn't respond to that because this is the first Adiemus recording I've ever heard and, frankly, I loved every second of it. I'm thrilled that other listeners think the earlier recordings are better because I've now got something to really look forward to. For me this recording evinced a blend of emotional responses - quiet contemplation, relaxation, toe-tapping, a satisfied smile, that whole body moving response to a driving rhythm and a joyful sense of participation in an all-encompassing musical experience. The recording is an eclectic blend of styles that cover an enormous range - Celtic rhythms and fiddling tunes in the style of River Dance; hard rock and steady beats that took a page out of Enigma's play book; a beautifully blended chorus of female voices that might well have included Enya, Diane Arkenstone and Loreena McKennitt; orchestral backgrounds that ranged from lush full orchestral accompaniment to pizzicato violin arpeggios that would have done Tchaikovsky proud in The Nutcracker; simple but effective, pleasing blues style acoustic guitar; full-bodied high speed choral sections that might have been penned by Karl Orff as part of the unforgettable Carmina Burana; and, a very effective seven beat piece that reminded me of the rhythms of Dave Brubeck's Unsquare Square Dance or Moe Kaufman's Swingin' Shepherd Blues! Well, to each their own I suppose. It's certainly possible that this CD suffered by comparison to the quality of his other works but as a first time listener, I've got nothing but praise for it!

Unimaginative

by S Duncan from London on 2004-06-14
Unlike 'Songs of Sanctuary', this album lacks imagination and invention. It comes across as somewhat monotonous and overly 'camp'.Cu Chulain is a reasonable start but even there the urgent contribution by the violins comes too early, and by the end of the 'song', the concept becomes tiresome. The title track seems to be depicting something monumental in its climatic outbursts but if so, the effect is more visual (the documentary itself) than aural. It's odd how there is apparently no language used here yet 'Palace of the Crystal Bridge' manages to sound like some clueless surfer-girl taking herself way too seriously. 'The Wooing of Etain' is a beautiful instrumental and one of the very few pieces on the album that is thought-provoking, as is 'King of the Sacred Grove' (which is mellow and sounds suitably regal)....this is more of what I've come to expect/appreciate in Jenkins. Even so, he could have done more to build a climax towards the end of this, the third longest piece on the album.'Songs' such as 'The Dagda' would be interesting diversions/fillers for the album if it wasn't for the synthesized, mass-product result of the album overall. Less 'ethnic-sounding' and more towards 'tacky' (e.g., the duo separated by 1 octave sung in unison at the end of 'Hermit of the Sea Rock'), this isn't as moving an experience as some would laud it to be.
