Rachel,
I doubt I'll bid on that cute little caladium for now...but it's on my wish list.

GaGirl.....I'm doing a Rain dance, a Mac-a-rain dance, a Turtle rain dance - heck I'd hang off a pole if it would get us all rain.
I hope those fires are settling down around you. I know how disconcerting that is.

Dzzy and Rita, I'm having Pond Envy - it's just not in the budget right now.
soooooooo
I'm thinking of putting my Black Magic and Mojito EE's in this low spot in the front yard...I like to take advantage of the natural lay of the ground...and since I can't afford to build a real pond right now...I was thinking I'd encourage another Bog-ish Garden. It's good rich soil - drains well, ..and gets' sun from about sunup till 2:00 or so. I think that would be enough sun for the those two...and they are hardy here.
I can expand the area right up to where the ground starts to naturally rise again.
Any thoughts ?
