I thought I posted a pic of my baby hibiscus, so here they are. Couldn't possible have too big a tap root yet. rofl I have transplanted several old ones because DH kept mowing them down and made me mad so now they are all around the pergola and doing great.

Went to Loose Park and Kaufman Gardens with a gardening group. Loose Park rose garden has gotten hit with rose rosette disease. They seem to think there is a bad case of it going around because of the knock out roses. The theory is growers with not good reputation are not checking the knock out roses and they are being grown with the disease. Great tours and we had great speakers to tell us what all was going on. There were 16 of us.

I am hot tired and sleepy, time for a nap.

See that line of light green, those are all baby hibiscus
