I love having plants and flowers around too. My calladiums have started coming up and I have several colors of Day Lillies in bloom. I have lots of Impatients, Salvia and Petunias planted. This morning I got more red and white Petunia and some beautiful red Verbena. I think I'll go back and get a couple of more baskets of that verbena. They also had baskets of red trailing Geraniums that I think I probablly should have gotten. FOFL.

I was making progress in tbe yard until we had an infestiation of ants. So, I had to treat the whole yard. Now, just when it seemed safe to go back out and tackle the last of the heavy duty weeding those vile caterpillers haved arrived. Yuck. stinging Buck Moth caterpiller

Oh Darlin' those things are disgusting! I think the first ones, the yellow ones are the only ones I have ever dealt with.

I have never in my life seen any caterpillars like those!
I'm partial to Azaleas and Camillia's. Also I really like the Fushias, I love the color combinations and they come in trees or hanging baskets.
I have a fabulous Japanese Maple tree in my front yard that I am going to dearly miss. I will freepmail you the link to the web that has pictures of my house if you would like to see it. That is about the only thing that I will miss from that house.

I've been in the landlord/lurk mode today, but I want to ask if you're pleased with the HappinessFarms bulbs - I had to order another 50 RedFlashes today.
