Hill5422, love that Tiger! I will look for those seeds at WM on my next visit since they are so cheap. If I can't find some I'll let you know. I did pretty well with plants from seeds this year. Throwing them out and letting them do their own thing is so much easier than starting them inside!

Josephine, love those coneflowers! I have a ton of them and just can't get enough. I did cut down most of my QAL this evening. I have enjoyed them SO much! Now I'm waiting for the berries on my Elderberry bush/tree. It's grown SO much. What do you do to yours? Do you cut it back like the others?

I hope to make the RU (although I know nothing about it) and the Oct. swap. It's so early for me to start thinking about it tho because I just don't have anywhere to put little pots of cuttings etc. With all my own plants on my porch I only have a little space and every time I have 4" pots out there the big 'ole toads insist on living in them. Oh well, love my toads!

This is one of my toads declaring his "turf" with 2 plastic ducks my husband brought home for my son.
