I have to ask remember i'm from the south and i dunno whatcha mean by a big box store.Don't think we have those or we call them something else like maybe wally world.Just to clear up something i have been confused about for awhile & decided it was time to ask.

I also hope nobody tells me to go to freddy's for tomatoes cause i don't know him???

Jo,By big box, I usually mean places that sell hardware, garden, houseware, plumbing, etc all together in one store such that prices are lower.

Lowe's, Home Depot and such.

Freddie's is a PNW local chain that Kroger bought up. Really hasn't been the same since.

ok bev, we are thread jumping and i think we have caught up with each other.I just explained on the other post that i was joking with you because i had just been joking about over here & went to the other thread & you said it their.

Think we can get back to succulents now.

Thanks for the idea's about companion plants.I like the iris idea and i love them,but they do tend to be costly.I had some double bearded iris but i think the hill has washed so much that now they are buried to deep.I need to try to find what i can and move them.

I think that's one of the cutest plants I've ever seen! Did you get it on your travels or where??? I love it!

Love that tiny draba Sandi!

I picked up the draba last fall at a NARG's member plant sale here in Colorado. It over wintered in that tiny plastic pot. I came home yesterday to the little blooms and thought I would take a pic right away since we are getting 5 more inches of snow today and tomorrow! Boy do I miss Oregon!!

Not more snow! That stinks.

We had a record high yesterday of 87 deg.!!! Back into the 40s tomorrow. Insane.

I thought about you while i was watching the weather.I thought how can anyone be getting snow now!!! I was mad because we keep getting these unpredictable rain storms,i don't have it that bad!

That's so cute. Glad you made it home safe. I saw that weather report.

Clint, I like those too. I'm going to plant them around my upright sedums for color in spring/summer. I have a few coming from SRG, so that's my plan..

I see you made it safely home Sandi. And what a most wonderful treasure to come home to. Great photo.
