Everyone's posies look great, especially those from the southeast where we have had such epic amounts of rain. The SC Botanical Gardens up in Clemson were essentially destroyed by a foot of rain within a short period of time the other day, whole areas are just gone. I am seeing a lot of wet wilt down here, there is so little O2 in the soil. I am telling people to poke pitchforks into the soil around plants in the ground and just sticks into containers to make holes where oxygen can get near the roots.

Lily, I am in awe of your Canadian grown flowers, you have done a fantastic job up there.
