Sandy - Thanks! We do try to encourage people not to add tomatoes, peppers or any member of the nightshade family to their compost and you experienced one of the results when you had the tomatillos growing everywhere. A friend in Lake George felt we were wrong, too, and spread her "compost" and had thousands of tomatoes growing everywhere.

Dave - I'm sure a lot of plants that are classified "invasive" for some of us are just fine with other gardeners. I think I'll be fighting the Celandine until the day I die but they're sweet little plants......on someone else's property.

The asters should begin growth within the next week so if anyone wants to trade just drop me a Dmail.
