Thanks Lynn.
I need to check Altman's. It has been a busy couple of years and not a lot of gardening. It has made me try and take stock of what I really want to spend my time growing however.
The pyracantha may have reached out to the gnome. According to my husband pyracanthas and bouganvilleas have a mind of their own and have no problem trying to grab him just to give him grief.
I'll let ya know if I find another Fred.
