Hi Neal, I've been off for about a year and a half, had an operation, but I'm back for awhile. Nice to see you posting, too.


My little yellow daffs are blooming like crazy, they made huge clumps. Thank you.

The Irises with the Hesperis is making me really happy! The 2nd pic isn't an exact match, but I am enjoying the gold and bronze foliage with that Iris.

I'd like to recomend Bonfire to anyone who has trouble with Euphorbias. I have had Blackbird,Tiny Tim and Chameleon. All died the first winter.
Bonfire is a mounder and color changes as the season progresses.I have had it 4 years.

I just added it to my wish list I keep here on ATP, will have to see if my local wholesaler has it in stock, it's on their inventory list.
One of my favorite euphorbia is Euphorbia (Euphorbia x martini 'Ascot Rainbow')
