At Krogers?!!!!!! The nurseries here don't even have that many varieties. I can't remember when there have been so few varities available. Wonder why? Your's are beautiful.

okey dokey, I'll swing by for Pati Opps, just remembered, 5 gal of gas $12. Can't even afford to come steal.

Fort Pierce, FL(Zone 10a)

LOL, Sugar. Or actually.....*sob*. I'm thinking instead of Molly's we could hit a tanker truck...Let's think BIG!!

Just kidding of course, but it's either laugh or cry at the gas prices. At least it's not too far to HD, and we don't have to worry about heating. My little one-lung electric heater will do nicely, thank you.

Hey Sugar, did you see that "Paisley" Drooool! I love to plant anything like "Pineapple", etc. with my darker ones. I have one no-name that is a bright lime green that I plant with "Black Dragon". So pretty, If I do say so myself!

Pati, that combo sounds like it's great.
I am in financial straight right now, (temporary) but mix-n-match, over 5 are $2. each + postage. If you let them choose, $17.50 for 10 + postage.
I'm looking for the postage rate now. I believe that's a dollar a pot for these, For $30. I can have 10 of my choosing. That's a deal!
