I'm five!
Spring NE RU - Saturday June 28th 2008 - Part 2
Me six!
Me seven!
Me eight!
What a great time! Thanks SO much having us, Kassia! I stopped over my parents' house on the way home, and I was raving so much about it that my Mom, who isn't particularly fond of going anywhere, is all excited to try to go next year! I've potted everything up, and they look great! I'll be planting them this weekend....somewhere.
Question: there was a varigated plant, looked like a shrub (not hosta), put in tissue and baggie. What was that again??
I'm nine!
Drumlin, how great that your mom is excited to go next year! Wheeee! Do you have a picture of the plant you're talking about?
Okay, I finally downloaded my pics. Here's Celeste unloading some rugosa roses. I took one. I have the perfect spot for it. I'll have to move a russian sage, but that's okay.
Hi Celeste! Wow, it was so great meeting you.

Look at all the stuff we brought!! To the right is Louise (DonnieBrook) and Liza.
Ooops. Again, Louise and Liza...
Goodies... just some of them! There was more that didn't fit in the pic!
from the left: Allison, Louise (in pink) and Liza. The hubbies are in the background next to Celeste's new Subaru.
Will it never end? Let's hope not!
Liza (JWLW) checkin' out the stuff. Liza, it was pure pleasure meeting you. : )
It's Sherrie! Our famous schickenlady! Hey there Sherrie! I liked hanging with you... although it wasn't long enough. Good to see you in person!
Harper
Susan (drumlin) and Sherrie. Susan, I don't think I hung out with you nearly long enough. I hardly got to know you!
Michele (onewish1's MIL) and Allison (onewish1). Hey there ladies!! Allison, you brought so much good stuff! It was all so healthy and perfect. Nice!
Jen (flowerjen), Nance (nanegoat66) and Sue (primroseSue). What a great bunch of women! I felt so comfortable with you!
C'mon Amy! Join the picture!
I loved this pot of Kassia's. It was probably 12".
A bunch of people had left before we got to do our group shot, but here we are! Well, I'm taking the pic.
Nance absorbing Celeste's fantastic vibe...
Michaela and Kassia and Kassia's beautiful Kousa Dogwood in the background.
and now a few shots of Kassia's garden. I was too busy talking. I didn't take nearly as many pics as I wanted to. Everywhere I turned on the entire property, there was something beautiful to look at. Oh, I could spend a week there and not get bored.
How did I miss that pot? Where was it? Love it!
yummy bliss
Jen, it was right behind you when you were posing for the pic with Nance and Sue. It was behind some chairs. Maybe that's why you missed it.
What is this? It's color was much more vivid in person.
Is it a thyme?
This one just blew me away.
I dunno Jen. Kassia would know, ya think?
One spectacular flower after another...
Fer sure!
I could've spent a lifetime taking pics in Kassia's garden, but it was getting late, and I had to go home. Last one.
Help!!! I got these Sat. but I can't remember what they are. Anyone recognize them??

is indeed creeping thyme...very good Jen!
Jen, I'm not sure, but I think they're the canterbury bells from Sherrie.
Oh, hey! Thanks Jen for IDing the thyme and Celeste for confirming!
Canterbury Bells- cup and saucer mix Campanula medium Biennial.
Keep in shade till fall then plant to permanent Sunny location 18" apart.
If you can keep them in the 3" pots till fall they will be fine. If you want a bigger pot that is fine. They are fed and if you want to put some miricle grow, every so oftern it wont hurt. Just keep em watered.
Now the empty cup is planted... with micromini Si
planted today: irises, mini hostas, floxgloves, the plant Dave gave me, the irises Celeste and Lisa gave me, all mints... and still have tomatoes to plant... took tons of pictures since roses are opening still!
Celeste: this is a daylily you sent me last year... is this Navajo Princess??? so gorgeous...thanks a million!
white lilly... love this one... so simple yet so nice!
April in Paris... such a small rose... but really nice...
