Hi guys, I got everything put back together.. lost my yellow king canna and my wonderful tall pink dahlias, but other than a few broken limbs on things I am pretty lucky.. lost my patio umbrella tho... it was a "straight wind gust" not a tornado I found out and it came very quickly.. this am I went out and cleaned stuff up and all the limbs from the neighbors were everywhere..still went and met Bonnie
( another DGr' in eskridge) and we went to a home owned nursery and pokey joed around, picked up a few things, went to a small town discount store and bargained a 23.99 rose something weigalia for 5 bucks, then went to another small town and picked up a nice size Oleander, ( Pink blooms) and then got alot of wild flower dead heads.. we had a blast..
these grow in the wild here, we saw them in walmart in Burlingame for 16 bucks I think.. look at this pod!
