Hi pirl, It was the Hosta Forum.
I like using some hosta leaves in vases with flowers, too! And the fragrant flowers would be nice indoors.

It has been so cold here, no one can plant annuals. It is about 40 and windy. I had to work outside all day. I'm ready for a warm shower!

29 gardens? Sounds like your whole yard is a garden- mine is too.

I like your idea of a vase of all daylillies. I've used them with other flowers. Do you have to keep them in good light for the best color?

Ivy, I don't know the name of the Quince, sorry. I got it before I kept track of names.

Marc, you co-workers must love you!

Please post pictures of your flowers! I promise not to complain about zone envy.
I have more interest than time here, so often I dream of having the house full of flowers but they never make it from the garden to the house. This year I'm hoping things will be different. If I could just plop them in a vase, without removing the lower leaves, conditioning, etc- I'd probably have more, they just wouldn't last long.
