good morning everyone! Quick note to friends here & there as I will be gone for a good part of day , checking in now & then. No frost last night thankfully as I didn't move my tropicals. I have a LOT of them outdoors & for early in season find that I can move them under the evergreens when frost comes through.

Molly & ohio.. I have a couple tropicals that you may want. they are angel trumpet plants that I started this spring. I take them in each winter & get one or two blooming cycles inside.

these pix are from last fall. they have one major bloom (the best) right before the frost normally. THey can get big but you can successfully trim back for inside control & very easy to start new ones. The part you cut off..stick it in pot & voila! - a new plant. the ones I have for you are about 15" tall.

Um, Dolly, your dog has a slinky attached to his/her neck.

Wow, Dolly, I have never seen flowers like that. Very interesting. I'll have to look those up in my Sunset Western Garden Book. They should be in there unless they don't grow anywhere in the west. Do you know the botanical name?
