LeBug I have 17" between shelves Yes on the paneling Thanks..I used screws not glue..Easy to change.

I hear ya! I have my pwerball ticket for tonight! : )
I spent the whole day adding pictures of my seedlings to my journal if you are interested to see what I have going on so far check it out. : ) http://davesgarden.com/community/journals/vbc/Meredith79/72467/
LeBug, it's hard to get seeds out of a tricyrtis. I have several varieties and the only one that produced seeds for me last year was a miyazaki. But they do multiply quickly on their own after the 1st year or two, so you should have plenty of blooms. If you want some of my may-have-crossed miyazaki seeds, I believe I have some left. Just let me know.
Meredith, Congrats! Your babies look great!
Man.............. It snowign liek crazy here. Tryign to get pics cuz it a rare thing to snow in central Alabama but it sure is today. Cold as heck otu too and yesterdya was in high 60's even with tornadoes and storms.
Snowball fight anybody?????
WOW -- i heard it was gonna snow down there. We dont have a 'stitch' of snow on the ground anymore. though it is quite cold. currently 16°
It rurnign into a white winter wonder land. Now it been forever since I seen snow, at what temp does it start to snow? Can anybody tell me. We also goign down into the 20/30's tonight. Thsi snow is sticking, is it gonna do damage and freeze the leaves. I got several hundred pots of mums out there that abotu 3-4 " tall already and wonderign if I need to go cover them up with plastic?
need some advice from ya all snow birds. LOL
Woke up to a dusting of snow this morning here. Just wintersowed a few more containers the last few days, so it always kinda makes me happy to have a cold spell after setting new jugs out.
Star, my Vinca are getting their 2nd and 3rd sets of true leaves now. I've just noticed the cotyledons are starting to yellow, but the rest of the leaves look healthy and dark green- is that normal? I've seen the way they can yellow if they're getting too much moisture, kinda throughout all the leaves. This looks different, and I'm sure they're not too moist- I've been extremely careful about that! Since the true leaves look good, I'm hoping its natural for the cotyledons to start dying off.
Star, new growth on Mums is frost sensitive, so you should probably cover them. Snow is a good insulator though, much better to have snow with cold temps than not.
Gemini yep soudns liek the cotelydens are gettignready to fall off.
Oh I froze, ran out in jammies and robe, didnt even grab coat, my hands are burnign ad stinging so bad, they got frost bit. : ( Snow nto so pretty now. don't knwo where gloves are and man that snow is heavyand cold and mix d with rain too. Ice balls, the pots all got snow in them, and over which i had off was ful of heavy stick to yoru ribs kinda snow and o that off and got the pots all covered, now it hopefor the best, I guess.
My poor Penoies are up , had to try and dash them in gh.
"Snow not so pretty now"
I bet!
Aww, Star, I hope you're cuddled under a blanket now with a cup of cocoa.
What we don't do for our plants!
So that is normal...I'm relieved!
Ya know when i first came to the south from up North, I had brought my ice skates and my fur liend winter boots. All thes eyears they been colelctign dust in the closet never worn and not too many motnhs back went through and finalyl got down to cleanign junk out and threw them out, not sittign here wonderign if I could find where in the garbage dump lot they are and get em back. LOL
Oh ya, I wil be otu in storms and anythign els e to protect my babies. Have sevral hundred Texas Star Hibiscus that was starting to come up too and my Iris are formign bloom stalks.
I go tthe cocoa at least and brought in flat after flat from gh of tiny babie s last night. Out of room , so my bed covere d with the extra flats. So can't cuddle down, they nee dit more than me right now. Back to the couch for sevral days. LOL
You know, I've run out in my PJ's more than once to save plants... but I've never given up my bed to them. I probably would if I had to... ;-)
