OK--Sat. Oct 5th is going on my calendar...

Tee..hee..Karen---I bought 3 potted Cannas "Tropical Rose"
Sunday from our clearance rack. $2.67 each. Never had a pink Canna.
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.

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"
