Happy, happy, joy, joy!!! :D I love hearing that eyes are popping up. I went for a walk in the front yard today and was surprised to see several with eyes. I'll bet there are more but some are still covered with oak leaves. I'm not hurrying to clear them away because I know the resident rabbit is t...

I have had mixed results overwintering in pots. I think a lot depends on the hosta. Some are just tougher than others. One year I left them on the driveway close to the garage. The ones that were shielded by the overhang survived. The ones that were not (someone moved them out a bit) died. The year...

Good for you Linda! Even with those two you found, you're still doing great. It sounds like you are staying on top of things Chris. You'll be finished before you know it.

She has a severe urinary tract infection which is resistant to most antibiotics. She will have to be on one of the strong, expensive ones for a month to make sure the infecti...

I have never had a seedling that was self sown in my zone 5. Maybe someone else has some advice about ...

Thanks John. I think it's pretty too. Yes, the camera does do strange things to the color. Mine seems to be doing it more often lately. It might be time for a new one. I think this was the morning when I ran out to take a pic because I heard the thunder and was afraid the bloom would get all beat u...
