I am not sure because I have only ordered once before frome Romence Gardens and it was a single vine. This time my order included the 6 nepeta and 2 tomatoe plants that I want to give a try.

What plants are y'all talking about? 'Little Trudys'? What are they?
Is this it? http://www.romencegardens.com/...

The Little Trudys are a shorter nepta they must be fairly new to the market as I have not seen them before. Yes that is the link to what we were talking about. I should have added to my message that they were nepetas.

Thanks Betty!

I just today looked and found BUDS! (just looked on one side of the trellis, so far)

Can't wait till it's flowering and attracting Hummers!

Mine has not come yet. I know it is going to be so beautiful but I need to make up my mind where I am going to put it. Does it get real big? Was it 20 feet, I was assuming I could keep it pruned.

We have a very sturdy wroght iron trellis that is about maybe 8 to 10 feet tall my DH made it along with another one around 8 feet away he made an arch on the tops to connect the two and give them extra support. That is where mine are planted they can take pruning very well once they are established. You ladies are lucky you can be out in the garden it will be awhile here before it is warm enough. So gald you have a MW coming to live in your garden!

I am excited about MW but If you saw all these weeds you might not call me lucky! Maybe, unlucky would be a better word. I wish I could fix one cup of coffee without finding an ant in my sugar too!!

(your DH sounds wonderful)

I have a metal (iron?) trellis that's approx. 6 feet tall, but with the 16 inch container I planted MW in last year, it doesn't get to use the part that the container is in front of.

Here's a couple of my pics from the database.

Looks good.

Thanks Susan!

As you can tell, the trellis is fully used by MW. Hope it won't be a problem every year (from now on).

Looking forward to its second year (first full year) of flowering!

DH and I can't believe the dots on the Hummingbird Migrating map. We think some of them are faking it.

Have you reloaded/refreshed the map each time/day? We do it at least 6-12 times a day.

Can't wait to see the Hummers!

I cannot find the map. That was just an image of the map which I copied to my computer. I was cheating. You caught me.

This thread has inspired me to move a native honeysuckle to my front porch post. Not as vivid as MW but should be a good hummingbird plant, and free for the taking (I have at least one growing in my wild area, likely more). Lonicera ciliosa

Yes, I have been checking the Hummingbird map several times a day. Someone please tell them to slow down! There is nothing ready here for them to eat!!

That's my problem, they are coming through now and not much is blooming.
I am convinced that I need a couple of feeders to occupy them till the blooms come.

Does anyone have a link to the live map?
