I love that they have such nice size Jo Ann. Most of mine are smaller and it difficult to have much impact with them. I know I asked you before, but what is that interesting blue/green cascading plant in the top photo?

I've never seen your container "feet" before Jo Ann. Are they easy to come by?

I buy them as annuals here 5 bucks and they grow like mad and reroot everywhere they come in contact with soil.
You could easily multiply 1 plant ten times over befroe mid July.

You shouldn't have any trouble finding it, Lynn. I've seen it at Garland Nursery down here, and with all those wonderful nurseries around Salem it should be a cinch.
