Marie, that kitty is so pretty.. gotta get your scratchin where ever you can! lol How exciting to have new crosses about to bloom, You'll love the pacific north west, just gorgeous territory... I'm leaving Tuesday as well for my stint in SC and VA.. I'm not paying my DD, she lives with me.. but I DO expect a few picture updates while we are gone. Linda Kay, your plant, has it been id'd yet? I think it looks a little like hibiscus, but not enough to be hibiscus... the leaves remind me of a viney little sunflower... but I don't think there is such a plant. I'm curious, tho. Marie, we have Hotties that are "crazy" that don't have to bring their brugs in for winter, I don't think that is a determining factor, lol... We're glad you're one of us crazy Hottie Sis's tho. :) Your garage plan sounds great, that's how I do all my tropicals, only in the basement. (Okay, Hotties Beck & Peg, EVEN IF I make it back over there to ask about the greenhouse frame...IF I got it 100% free, I still can't afford to put plastic on it for this winter, and I'll need fans and heaters, so they are going in the basement one more year.... Just didn't want to mention greenhouses and winter storage, without letting some hotties know, I haven't forgotten about the unused frame I've had my eye on all summer) lol (I appreciate the reminders, thou, cause I'm not just a crazy hottie, I'm a crazy Bonnie sometimes, too!) Congrats, Marie, on getting one for 2009! Pic is a Dahlia I found in MO this spring..(hope I haven't posted it here before) I'll try to winter it over, too.
