So glad you are enjoying the pictures of my pretties. :-)

At the end of June I posted a thread about my Mama CG needing a haircut. http://davesgarden.com/t/440511/
This is the plant the cutting was taken from last November.

No pictures since the deed was done. She was so embarassed by the way I cut her back to bare bones that I wasn't allowed to even bring the camera to that part of the yard. Barely a leaf was left, branches were mere stubs. As time has passed, she has forgiven me for the "bad hair month." And here she is after this interlude, showing me that she can overcome even a bad pruning job with a pair of dull pruning tools.

Eclipse - "wish I lived in Calif again"
I do know that feeling. We came to California from the midwest from 68-70. Moved back to Chicago for 9 long years. I kept my subscription to Sunset Magazine all those years and drooled over every issue. We returned in '79 and are still enchanted by this glorious state.
