They are so cute, as always. I especially love Rosebud trying to put the paper in her 'piggies' like her big brothers, how adorable! Lovey dubby

Any idea when the May NARR will be?

I was lucky enough to be able to choose the Caladiums (thank you Smiling ) and the box was received today.

As usual, Bill Kurek provided outstanding product, securely packed, and with plenty of planting/growing information along with the Caladiums.
Gotta give him many large and enthusiastic kudos!
Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!

I received my gift certificate from Annie's Annuals and Perennials the other day and want to share something with you all. It was sent through postal mail and included a beautiful card, and one of the most beautiful catalog's I've ever seen. The catalog looks so much like a beautiful gardening magazine. Beautiful photos with much detail about the plants. I can see me turning to this catalog over and over. Just beautiful! I ordered 7 new plants. Of course, I added some money to it too. Hilarious!
Here is what I ordered.

1)Helenium autumnale 'Red Shades'
2)Morina longifolia "Himalayan Whorl Flower" (Grew this from seed years ago then had it for years. Until I lost it one very wet winter. I'll be very happy to grow it again)
3)Penstemon heterophyllus 'Blue Springs' "Foothill Penstemon"
4)Salvia leucophylla x clevelandii 'Pozo Blue'
5)Salvia spathacea "Hummingbird Sage"
6)Verbascum hybrid 'Southern Charm'
7)Verbascum 'Pink Domino'
