I cannot believe it but the deck is still lush and for the most part looking good still. I have removed some large leggy ones and put in smaller ones which I had in pots. Sandy wanted me to pull them out weeks ago. Since we can not put in the fall stuff until probably mid Nov, I decided to just work with what was there instead of preparing and leaving empty pots until then. I hate that. I must admit that now it is time to start the clearing out process. sadness. The three tier planter is looking sad. We will wake up soon and it will be cold here. Oh the large leggy ones.....I pulled them out and put them in the yard beds just to see it they would still live. It started raining often and they are hanging in and starting to put out more leaves. I am just going to watch them for experimental purposes. Every one have a good day. shirleyt
