Onewish, I keep the Ruby Red, which are a smaller plant, but the roots get bigger each year and they grow quicker after I plant. I also have seed for the fragrant one's and I really need to plant them this year before I lose the. The seeds that do sprout in the garden take so long to grow and bloom. I will always keep the roots.

Chris, I like them too, in moderation, but the whole yard can quickly become a sea of yellow and they get huge here! The grass will die under them, leaving it open for weeds. So, we dig and spray.

Gita, those are nice! I will use your misting idea. I've never done that. I do have the sack of them and the glads sitting in my kitchen. I'll look at them later. I've been keeping the roots for maybe three years now.

We had a nice jeep ride yesterday. I was glad. The wind was a bit annoying. The kind that seems to affect the sinus.

Have a good day all. If it doesn't rain we'll be getting a load of horse manure early.

The neighbor's cat comes in and sleeps here. DH caught him looking out of the sheet shelves after waking up. (I cover the sheets with a rug)
