My registrations for postage

We have a 3/4 acre lot, with the option to buy another 1/2 acre, but I just don't see us needing it right now. The tree growing between the beds and the house is a Bloodgood Japanese Maple.

I don't have any Asiatic or Oriental lilies YET, but I had Asiatic lilies at the other house and loved them. I just haven't gotten around to getting any yet. I really have to put in a few more beds next year.

This is a picture of my greenhouse in the backyard. It's small and used mostly for seedlings in the spring. I have a small oil-circulating electric heater that I used sometimes in Spring if the weather gets very cold and I have a bunch of stuff in there. Beside it are two fairly large seedling beds for my daylilies, irises and hosta.

This is a hosta bed that I just put in this year behind our walkway wall. THe tree in the plastic tube is a Japanese Maple that I grew from seeds from a Kinran Japanese Maple. They say they don't do well on their own roots but it was growing so well, that I thought I'd give it a try.

Very nice.

I do not know if you woukd are interested in purchasing any bulbs at this time ..... there is a Dave's Garden co-op for ordering fall bulbs .... I believe today is the last day to place an order .... the present discounts range from 60% to 73%

delivery is scheduled for end of 1st week in Oct. The featured items are lilies to plant in the fall for next year ... i fell in ove with a yellow hyacinth.

I love the bloodgood Japanese Red Leaf Maple trees.

Pictured is a small one grown from a seedling on my property .... its mama has a habit of donating her seeds to my front flower bed.

Would you like some of her seeds?

My younger daughter thinks I should have a greenhouse.

Beautiful garden Sherry!

Silly Love Songs
Keystone Dark Star
Not Guilty

Okay, I think we've come to the end of the line on this one.

I will be mailing Ayrica out tomorrow, and I had enough irises left to send out one more box. Irisluver0252 will be getting that one sent out on Tuesday.

This was fun, and I hope we can do it again in a year or two.

Happy irising!

Hi Sherry

I received the iris yesterday. They are all settled in their new home. I have never grown this type of iris before. I look forward to seeing them grow and bloom. Thank you so much for the iris.

Hello, Sherry,
I have spent the last ten days helping my goddaughter, a new mommy, and her newborn son, who both are dealing with birthing/nursing issues. Two days drive each way; I'm exhausted! The rhizomes were at my home when I returned just this past Sunday; my husband knew to open the box. I'm feeling somewhat recovered from the trip and hope to get these planted today.
I'm sorry for this late response; I had no access to a computer while I was gone.
Thank you so much for the rhizomes! I will look forward to seeing them in their glory next spring.
Sincerely,
Chris
