WNYwillieB, nice collection of plants outside your GH. But I am dying to see all those cactus. looks like an amazing lot.

My big excitement is that a gladiolus nanus 'Elvira' has wintered over an is blooming today. It is one of my favorite glads. I just planted more of it today from 4paws/bleek coop this year (5 for 1.25) I planted, finally, all the new glads I bought on that coop plus two big boxes that I had dug and stored from last fall. I would venture to say that we planted 300. Some were on the smallish size. It is going to be interesting as I didn't map out the colors very well. But if they don't work in place, they can certainly be cut and enjoyed in the house. I could look like a funeral home come Aug. Patti
