As of today--I have everything in the house now that has to be inside.
It has been a haul for 3 days! All that running around--up and down--in and out...
sure wore me out.

I put the still blooming non-stop Begonias in my shed. Also a huge pot of
red wax begonias. May get some warmer weather later--then I'll put them back out--
IF they are still alive.

I should take a bunch of end cuttings from the Persian Shield. I have so many--
and they are so pretty. Would they live in some water for a few days???
i DO want to take some -plants to my HD to give away to people.
OH! Better grab some hand-fulls of the wandering jew....it is everywhere...

Got most of my plants situated inside---Phew-that took some time....
You know--they have to look pretty too where they are.

Judy--The Fishnet Stockings is not liking being indoors! It keeps dropping leaves.
Have you had any luck overwintering it?
I have some cuttings that i am trying to root--but they are not doing so great either,,

I have to dig up the 3rd clump of Iris and re-plant them.
I also have to re-plant all the bulbs That I kept digging up as I was amending
the soil in the 2 other areas of iris.

Digging up the Caladiums also needs to happen any day now, as BG&E is coming
on Nov. 1st to install my Smart Meter. They will never get to it as it is in the back
of my kitchen-side bed which is still full.

AAARRGGGHHHHH---so much to do yet! G.

Can you see the meter behind the ferns on the left?
