Um....it is cold here too!! Not wanting to rub it in...but mostly only at night...in the day my greenhouse stays a toasty 60 degrees up to 80, depending on the outside weather. Today was kinda cold as was yesterday making it into the 45-50's range outside my plastic home...still toasty inside though.. :) and some wonder how I have so many plants...well lets see, I hate being in the house, and I hate cold weather...so I stay cooped up inside the gh all winter long, and dread summer when it is unbearable in there. I think in the last two days I have done nearly 12 trays of cuttings (at least 75 per tray) and have potted up at least 150 begonias and several other plants. I am a propagating nut! My friend Patsy tells people not to stand still around me to long or I will figure a way of cloning them as well...lol...

Well I have only got one so far....oh Gran, have you got the rosary vine yet? Got someone who has it and can get some for ya to ship with your package...jlmk...ok all I will be sending plant survival prayers to all those who live in colder climates....I just don't see how y'all do it! I would be so cold I would not be able to move, much less have the drive to get out of bed! Hubby wants to move me up to Illinois, NOT HAPPENING!! There would be a really ILL Noise coming from that state if he drug me up there to live....everyone in the whole U.S.A and parts of Canada would hear my weeping.....and for all you snow birds...there are some pretty nice chunks of land down here where cold is coldest at 28 degrees at night.....which with just one big heater keeps my GH at a cozy 45 low... Gran I found a pic of my son and I from like 2yrs ago...I seen your mugshot elsewhere on DG...to lazy to dmail it to ya...besides I do chat occasionally with a few of ya...there's my mug!! take care everyone and don't be sticking your tongues on any poles...lol...I did that once when I was in Michigan...I think I am still a few layers of skin shy on my tongue....
