When we got there (a group of 5) one of the ladies told us it was one plant per household address.


If that was this year, then there's still a problem.

Great photos

I will post mine tonight since I will have to resize mine as well. I didn't realize what I had my camera set on and it saves the photos at the highest MG and they are anywhere from 6 MB to 13 MB.

WOW! And I thought my 3MB and 4MB images were huge.
Those huge images are great, but they're heck to attach to an e-mail because
you reach your ISP's limits so quickly.

Sea of Cinders looks like a great choice. Must add Orange City to the "Most Wanted" list though!

Orange City is a standout. I remember making a mental note of it last year, but it had slipped my mind. Then, as I was sitting in the shade, waiting for Mrs. Reilly to write up an invoice for the plants we'd already purchased, I saw a clump of it blooming at the other side of the beds from where I sat. Went and looked, then remembered how much I'd liked it, so we added it to the list.

Wish I'd known you were going to be on the tour - we could have arranged to meet in person. My partner and I met so many nice people Friday and Saturday.

Okay, here begins the penultimate garden we saw on Saturday. It was 2:00 when we arrived at Floyd Cove, and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Less than ideal conditions for taking photos of blossoms.

I was however, able to take a picture of some of the labels before I took a picture of the flower, so I have a number of photos with names on them.
