Good afternoon, all. Lovely tulips, Amanda, and the pot of mixed plants is nice, too. I am sure it will be lovely once the plants start growing and filling in. Most of my tulips have "done their thing" but I have a few left that are still blooming. However, the most recent rain (this morning) has beat them down somewhat.

I went to Randolph's Nursery in Jackson, TN yesterday with 2 other Arkansas DGers. We met up with about 20 or more DGers who also made the trip from various parts of TN and MS. A good time was had by all. We came home loaded down with plants, some from the nursery and some from other DGers who had brought plants from home and on the way home we stopped at Sheila's house and she dug up more plants for us! Are we obsessed with plants or what?
Here's a pic of part of what I brought home. I think I was most thrilled with my "Hot Lips" Salvia. Also, Celia, I bought two different types of corn plants and I think one of them is that one you found in the catalog some time ago. It's not big enough to be showing the various colors, though. If you can't find one, I will send you one when this one gets big enough to separate.
