Dave and Trish, I am doing catch up on the podcasts and will toss something at you occasionally.

I was confused about the caladium bulbs. You are in 8b and you have to dig them up? I am in 8b and they grow in the ground and stay there all winter, coming back in about May. The really nice thing about caladiums, I can get bulbs from some of the nurseries around here for 75% off in the fall. I take them home, plant them and they still have time to grow before first frost.

And Trish, I am quite lucky to live in a pine forest so have a lot of shade. Unlucky as to have to fight every year to keep the forest at bay.

Thanks for the podcasts. I really enjoy them and now I need to find some surprise lilies, (not rain lilies right?)

Happy Gardening,
Molly
