These are short--so suited for containers. It says--24"-30" tall. Might look nice in the middle of my BIG pot next year-- instead off the usual whatevers... If anyone wants some of these--I can pick up more-- but they WILL COST $3.70 ea. My prolific neighbor also brought over a couple clumps of "Green Fountain" Hosta. I divided it and potted up 10 pots. This Hosta is very basic...narrow, ribbed leaved and not too tall. http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/3170/ I will also have a bunch of dug up Daffodil bulbs...pretty ones.... Will bag up about a dozen per offer. (see Picture) Also--assorted dug up bulbs up for grabs... I will be taking lots of cuttings of my "Inky Fingers" Coleus-- as it is getting HUGE!!! I had an idea--that next year, I will grow this in a HB. Should mix well with some other trailing flowers. Wondering if it would live as a houseplant through the winter...I hate to deal with all these Coleus cuttings....but will have to do some, as I have acquired several new ones this year. Hate to lose them... Baby AV's and baby CC's are always available...Not all are color-ID'd. It will have to be a surprise...Gladly share some with all of you all. Well--I guess I better go and list these things on my "haves" now.... People may be interested in some of these... 1--The dug up Daffodils bulbs--late blooming, long lasting... will bag up in about 1doz amounts.. 2--The pink Canna--"Tropical Rose" 3--Baby AV's 4--Baby CC's. 5--Hosta division--"Green Fountain" |
