Thank you. I like it, but when others are here, I kinda cringe....like it should be neat and tidy, manicured..lol. I have accepted that I am just not an orderly person. Yeah, the watering is too much...too much work, too much cost. We would really like to take a run up the coast and can't...and then, by October when we used to enjoy going, now we worry about the fires, so....things will have to change.

I do see a couple of places where I could squeeze in the shrub fuchsias...lol..I'm also finding that I really like having that type of thing in big pots, too. You can group things together that would look odd planted together in the ground.

I was just e-mailing with my friend who was up at Annie's a couple of weeks ago and Annie's has the Bolivian Sunflowers available online! We wish that Nancy had seen them when she was there, but we didn't even know we wanted them until this week..lol...now we want them BAD. Also just found that the cheapo nursery where I got my kangaroo Paws for $3 a gallon a couple of years ago has them for $4....still a great price. I may have to go get some more...sigh. I love my orange and yellow ones and seeing them out my kitchen window. They stay in flower sooo long.
I could be wrong...
and.....
