sorry Ge I forgot to reply before I hit send... but I think that one is strawberry drop... or trailing strawberry there is no difference I can see between them
Thanks for the ID
I have a cutting from a DG'er and was curious about ID
I will take cuttings for winter.
Here's mine
very nice...it's one of my favs
Very pretty, Allison and JoAnn!!
Thank you, Carrie!
Kassia - will you be able to make our RU? I hope you're not working!!
I've just fallen in love with the Gingerland caladiums. I got some from Bill's coop, and they are such a pretty combo of colors. I'll get some shots when I can take going out in the heat!
Debilu and Robindog just left
Its unbearabley hot and humis so the garden tour was a swift one.
We spent the rest of the day gabbing about the RU's at Karens and Boojums. I am so jealous of all of you who live so close to eachother.
JoAnn - I wish you lived closer too! I'm glad you three had a nice visit!
Marilyn was so full of great things to say about everyone ahe met.
She and her DH are eager for your RU.
She's terrific! I'm looking forward to seeing her and Doug.....and everyone who's coming. It's a great group of nice people!
She left her camera here.
I think they are leaving thursday.
If you have a cell # for her I would like to catch her before she leaves.
d-mail me if you have it
Sorry, JoAnn, I don't have any contact info for her other than DG.
amazing what a month will do

Containers are looking great!
thank you... where ya been?
BC, WA, MT on a travelabout onewish. Big bros wedding and visiting DG buds. Scooped up a cool new garden bench, ladybird steppy stone and big swirly cement mushroom in MT at a real bargoon too. I have SO put that state on my garden shopping spots list.
aaahh very nice... can't wait to see photos!
Coleus is really booming this year.
Dnut-sounds like fun...I need a vaca.
Pots are really looking good Allison. You must be doing something right.
Also wanting to see pics dnut. Sounds like some real power shopping going on out there. Jealous, yes I am. :)
Aren't roadside enterprises amazing? He will be surprised when a flock of DGers descend on him cuz I spread the word far and wide about his fabby deals.
So, where in MT is it? Did you stop and visit sofer? On our driveabouts to OR to visit DS and family, Montana was my favorite state. We stayed overnight in a town called Libby.
Hey guys!!!! I worked so much this past week... it was tough... but I love being a nurse... I am going to make it to the RU... dying to see you guys....
I have been moving things around the garden also... oh so many ideas for next year... this time I am writing it down... because I forget it...
Hi Kassia. I'm 73 and have to write down whats happening five minutes ahead of time. Thank goodness for the computer and file s of notes and pictures from my gardens and others as well.
I spend the winter working on prolem areas and coleus arrangements.
My container coleus have taken off! They are among the few {the hibiscus too} that adored the former rain we had this summer and are soaking up the remains of Tropical Storm Danny. I am going out when it stops dripping and take some pictures.
Martha
yes please!!
Time to take cuttings, I guess? For next year?
oh ge1836 - I am so hopeless- the only reason I water my plants and don't use the irrigation is because I have time to really decide what is going where... sometimes I start moving plants and completely forget what I was about to do... oh life!
I am taking so long to plant irises... I can't decide where to plant... oh good decisions for tomorrow since it's going to be such a nice day!
Sun, Kassia, the irises will need full sun.
Martha
Jan the roadside vendor was in Haugan Montana. Sadly I didn't get to Sof's place this trip. Next summer for sure!
I have a standard dwarf bearded in just morning sun and it blooms beautifully. I'm putting some more in a partly shaded garden this fall to see how they do.
my box out front
the poor pink ones are buried in there... not always good planning
the other barrel
Onewish ! Is that Peter Wonder in the box out front?
I think that was a Pirl cutting... not sure... but I think this is the same one I have in the back.. I had that one on the coleus forum trying to get an ID... and no positives came of it
think I was looking at the wrong one... but I do have one with that kind of veining ... this one was another Pirl cutting I believe
I was referring to the tallest plant in the box.
It sure looks like PW
that's kingwood karnival ... it's doing great this year
Ohhhhhhh yeah now I recognise it
Nice pots all. Fav is the front yard box, love the stump as a stand. Pirl's cutting also very pretty.
