I'm about to do some more damage at Fairweather (now that I have a catalog!). Does anyone have any evergreen viburnums? If so, which one(s) and would you recommend?
Thanks

Does anyone know if there is an iphone app for DG? I can't seem to use it easily on mine. It's very hard to navigate around and read the screens.
No. Been asking forever. It is very hard with the size, though I do manage.
Its not bad on the android
Photo of 'Robert Kemp' cana had a hummimgbird in the frame, making it extra-special!

Going to the CT flower show tomorrow, with the checkbook and visa card in hand...hubby has been warned!

I'm still thinking about it, dem.....have a doc's appt tomorrow, but maybe Friday.....
Wish I could go!
Just the smell is enough to revive me!

have fun! can't wait to see the pics
Ordered a few DLs.....Country Melody, Eye of Round,Indy Electrified, Mask of Time, and peony Coral Charm.....I'm through catalog ordering, but may find some stuff at the nurseries.......
Coral Charm is quite pretty. I am not ordering anything until I see ground, If I miss out, it's just tough luck.
The bottom drawer of my refrigerator is stuffed full of peony tubers and lily bulbs after today. Wow..
That peony coral charm is lovely! Nice DL selections, was looking at Country Melody the other day thinking it was a nice pink bitone with edge.
I do have a lot of pinks, but I do love them! Dem, thanks for reminding me.....I put a half dozen dahlia tubers in my Mom's down cellar fridge this past fall.....guess I better take them home!
LOL, only one of mine survived last year, had canna's in the same box and they were fine. Oh well...I just went out and scored some at the home depot in Waterbury.
saw that bartzilla peony from jung for $69 - 2-3 eyes, will have to check klehm's again.
It's really a pretty peony, but I decided on the coral....cheaper, too! Dem, I sometimes hit that HD, but like the one in Torrington better......
Went there to order flooring, so pissed over the drunks in front of the store Will NOT go back. Didn't see them next thing I got one in front and one coming up on side, wanted to sing me a song, and a smoke...Scared the you know what, store could've cared less.
Did you call the cops?
Sounds like Waterbury! The Torrington store is a little classier......some guys harrassed me as I was walking Suey over the dam earlier this week....but what do you tell the cops? That they were saying "Hi" & whistling? I had been walking with Buzzy the birdman for about a mile, then he left.....these guys were parked at the end watching....gave me the creeps......wish I was walking Robs....he would have threatened them.....
They put the building next to a homeless shelter and down the street from a halfway house. Manager says "Home Depot will not pay for security outside".Robindog be careful!!!!!! Walk smart and aware, big stick and bigger dog doesn't hurt! Walk with someone or with a group.
The dam is pretty exposed, & many cars are about including the rangers.....I usually feel safe.....today, about 4-5 cars passed me by......I hope those creeps were just an isolated incident.....
Loitering, harassment, both illegal
After Cheshire and New Britain incident I lock my doors all the time, if I walk in from the garden, the door locks behind me. Times are different.
Heavens, we have always locked our doors, even in the 1940s.
Not here, everything has changed. Of course, my job helped.
I'm so happy to have a nasty dog.....and he sounds it! After the Cheshire murders, I could not sleep at night, even though DH was still alive.....but I kept telling myself Robs would be there for me.....
True lady, but a lock will keep honest people honest.
