GYPSIES MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND

yes to the bulbs, until it stops raining I can't get out there to plant them

hay once it gets wet once it won't move, and not completely covered cuz wet hay is heavy

and yes I do plan to cut all the sweet potatoes back, the ones that have tubers will be cut completely back and stored for the winter, the Freeze just came way faster than expected! so I got a little overwhelmed, and I still have a box of stplong's coleus I'm trying to get sorted out

Oh yeah and I planted this little vignette today too

Everyone kept saying how wonderful straw was!!!! If it becomes heavy, I don't what that!!!! Shoot! Now I will have to take it back.

yeah I know and I'm still doing trades!

Hello my name is Katrina and I am a plant addict....but think of all the great oxygen in our houses

this is my hobby

only on extremely delicates, the weight is a good thing just mound it up around the plant

I do the sewing too, and counted cross stitch...love it

this is general discussion and chat we were weeds in the beginning gardners former and got transplanted here, so nothing here is the wrong forum

here is a diaper cake

Well I have all those very tiny plants under my gate and Judy's little . . I can't remember what it is called! How am I going to keep those from dying this winter?

Was anyone else sending me something that needed to be planted now??

Trina, were you going to send me anything that needs to go outside? Thank you but NO ROSES! If you want to share some of your bulbs. . . ?? But I think it is going to warm up to 60 degrees in a week. So maybe you can plant them then.

Oh yeah I almost forgot where I was

here is another quilt that I am working on ( 2 years and going)

my 89 year old grandpa made the log cabin blocks I put the quilt top together and now I am working on hand quilting it.

had to fix spellling had a 4 year old at my feet, picking on the dog

do glad bulbs need to be planted now or are they suppose to be brought in, Patick bought a lot of bulbs from a co-op this past spring and we only planted a few and I think we have about 80-100 of them

oh those can be covered completely...not a problem...I don't think so I think I had more seeds and something special hehehe

Donna depends did he buy hardy glads or regular glads?

not sure how can you tell the difference? (I'm a dummy)

they are different named ones, Plum tart, Vista, summer rose,good news,orange crush,
but they don't say hardy or not

if he bought hardy glads plant them or wait, if they aren't hardy glads then you have to dig them up they won't survive in zone 5.....lost alot of those in the past until I finally learned...sometimes I'm slow

if they don't say then they probably are not hardy but you can look them up by name in plant files to double check....I keep thinking just zone 6 maybe a 7 would be nice, wouldn't have to dig glads in zone 7 and could have irises too

thanks for the info, I will talk to you all later, I have to resuce the dogs, she is chasing them around with a blanket to pick them up to take them to bed,

DG says Plum Tart starts in zone 8a.

LOL Donna, Night...I fanally got mine in bed!

Donna, all of those glad bulbs start in zone 8. Good site for many types.

Donna, you sure have a lot of bulbs!!!!

Donna, you have made some very nice handywork in your bag, cake, and quilt.

Hello everyone. Jean, this thread filled up quickly;-)

Dave, I was thinking that Dixie's plant might be Colocasia gigantea???

Good to see you Flower's and saying hello to stplong.

Trina, you still there?

Hi Rachel! I didn't realize we had so many replies so soon! How are you?

yeah I am still here trying to get the kids to stay in bed but when your 13 yo comes downstairs like this it's hard to keep a straight face

So cute!!! Pretty hair!

ok New thread not like anyone is here to notice but away we go

http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/1048206/

I am doing very well Venice and hope you are as well. The weather is going to take a drastic change here in the next few day's but hopefully it will not last long.

Trina, I think the sensitive plant is called 'mimosa'

loverly it's raining again....I'm never gonna get to plant these bulbs! I hope I can store them Like the Amaryllis then

Hello?

Hey any body up yet? If ya dont wake up soon. I'll sing another little wake up song for every one. Hummmm,usually if I threaten to sing it works. Bet theres little feet hitting the floor now!

Hey Dixie...there is a new thread GYPSIES DRUMS AND CHOCOLATE...see ya there...Moon

I have an even better idea. I'll sneak over to your homes and staple pictures of me with my Wally World teeth in !! That should do the trick.

Neighbors would just think family was visiting....grin
