Hi Becky,

I was so glad to see this thread too! I got a small box of Moonlight and a small box of Red Flash and just received an e-mail that mine have shipped!

Since we moved into this house three months ago, we've been slowly clearing a few areas in the yard that were overrun with weeds. There's so much Virginia Creeper, Pothos, Syngonium, Bitter Gourd, Smilax, etc. around this property that it has really been a chore and it will be a work in progress for some time to try to get things under control. Two places in particular in the front yard were overrun with Mexican Petunia (Ruellia simplex) I had a few Caladiums in containers that I brought with us from Daytona so I planted them in one spot where I think I got all the Ruellia up. There's another huge area beneath some oak trees where the Ruellia is still sprouting up from those awful rhizomes so it's going to be an on-going battle for awhile. I will probably plant some of my caladium bulbs and pot others up.
