Have I heard that a touch of frost may stimulate the Amaryllis to go dormant? Or was that another plant... it could apply to a number of things we usually dig and store for winter. I remember now which pot I used for 3 amaryllis last winter, so I'm going to try and pot my three tomorrow.

My big bale of potting mix, is about one third still full, and got a lot of rain in it during the last event, weighs a ton! I poked a couple holes and hope some drains. It'll become a giant dirt ice cube in the shed this winter.

I have some really delightful composted leaf mold from last years pile.
Plant it and they will come.
