Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Go you Brinda. It's so good to see you. And thanks so much for the Rosie Dawn Sale again this year. I'm so glad this cubit was featured today or I would have missed it. I'm joining your cubit now.
How's the new house? Is your avatar a photo of the yard? LOL, sorry about all the questions, but I've missed you and the coleus gang!

Debbie, that's the yard at her old house. I'm sure this one will be just as spectacular.
Brinda took the picture I am using in my avitar.
Great to see you.

Not that I know of. Mamajack had one last year and Gebhart's is where all of our Debit and Credit cards got compromised.
He has some things RD doesn't, so I will order from him one way or another.
Just use a special purchased 'Gift' card to pay with.

I placed my Rosy Dawn order yesterday, it took me forever as I kept changing my mind. I settled for 8 new ones for me and 10 for a friend. That discount really helps a lot
Merchandise Total: $80.75
Discounts: $17.00
Sub-Total: $63.75

Yesterday I took a flat of new cuttings from my 34 plants (started from cuttings in Sept.). My light shelves are now full. I asked for delivery from RD in mid April so I hope by then some can start living outside in shade most of the time.

Some new ones I chose for myself were

Beckwith's Gem
Glory
Electric lime
Rustic orange
Butter Creme
Ollie
Pinata
Trailing strawberry

Hi Sweet Shirley, how are you???!!!! I miss everyone too! I just don't spend much time at the computer these days. But I'm hoping that will change soon. We've been trying (little by little) to clean my Mom's house out and it's such a huge job and depressing too. And I have to look through everything so that makes it so much more time consuming!!! I'm just taking it day to day.

Wicked weather is headed our way this evening and our lows for the next couple of nights are supposed to be 3 & 4 degrees. Ugh! I'm so ready for spring. I've been making mental notes of all the gardens here and all the things that I want to do.

I've just been on Rosy Dawn's site and have 62 coleus in my shopping cart! Wonder what Allan will have to say about that? LOL

Stay warm... Stay safe!!! Hopefully we'll all see a thaw in a few weeks and spring will soon be here!!!! I need it sooooo bad!

I am starting to think I live up North again. It is so damp and cold and rainy here I could scream. Did not bother to put our usual deck plants out this winter. Not much time for anything but driving Sandy to rehab three days a week. Knees are coming along fine but back is now hurting really bad. It seems she has traded one pain for another worse one. Hopefully it will get better. I do not have much computer time either. Hoping Spring comes soon. Sidney how is the new adventure coming along?? shirleyt

Hi Shirley, I'm doing great and just got my disability determination, so I'm officially retired.
My boat is terrific. I think you and Sandy should get over here to Fl and we can go out to the Audubon Sanctuary. We will watch all the crazy male birds show-off for the female birds. It's getting to be mating season.
We will take pictures and will have the pictures to refer to while you paint.
I'm not sure where I'll put you both, but we'll work something out. Here's our first "model'.

Just checking back in here...hope the floods and tornadoes are missing you all. The mom in me gets a little nervous when I don't hear any chatter for a while. Hopefully everyone is busy gardening.
This summer may be a rough one. Winter and spring sure weren't easy!
My Rosy Dawn order came and the plants are huge! Several were over 10", with nice big branches. Plenty to pinch from. I think I ordered 17 and received 19. They all have nice vibrant colors. For now, I'm keeping them potted indoors.. It's been way too windy to put any tender plants outside. 40-50mph winds just destroy greenhouse grown plants.
How did everyone else's orders look?

I'm good. Incredible record rain and cold weather here, too. The 10 day forecast is looking better (tho not great) so at least I hope to make some progress at getting everything hardened off. They've all had brief trips outside on rare good weather days, but not enough yet. I normally plant out around May 15 but that will no doubt be delayed this year.

I ordered 8 new ones from Rosy Dawn this year and all arrived as nice, big, healthy plants, as usual.

Such a difference in climates yet, Allison and Karen, aren't you zone 6 like me? It's supposed to be 99 here tomorrow. We have 30 mph steady winds on top of that. We just skipped spring this year. All the rains have gone north and south of us and it's nearly impossible to water well in this wind. Sure hope our drought ends soon--sorry other parts got such an overabundance of rain and snow.
