FruitOfTheVine - I absolutely love the Atlas gloves....not terribly expensive.....I have ordered them directly from the company - used to have them on my plant sales and all I had to do was get someone to try them on and the sale was made.......I always had a pair marked "Sample" so that only one pair was being tried on - then I'd use them at home...on day, a neighbor kid was in the yard with me and he asked my why my gloves were marked "Sample" - when I gave him my explanation, he just said, "Yeah, keeps people from stealing them, too." He was pretty well on target LOL

thanks for the complement - hopefully, I will get them back in shape over the Fall and mild Winter days - having been unable to really do anything for almost 2 years has taken its toll but the palnts are tough and friends have helped me so very much.

I'll bet those tan spots are attractive .... LOL

Bletilla - hardy orchid - have them in pink/white, purple, white.
