I'm wishing I'd saved more ornamental purslane stems (Portulaca umbraticola) and Coleus, but I didn't have to let anything go, that I can remember at the moment. Except for some pineapple tops... hopefully they can take a light frost because all but 1 are still in ground.
Since I'd left almost everything potted this summer, vs. how I'd put almost everything in the ground in previous years, it was no big deal this time when Jack Frost showed up (uh, especially if I'm in denial so far & didn't dig up those pineapples yet.) But yikes! The same plants in the same pots (mostly) are taking up a lot more room, or I haven't arranged them as well...!
If I don't find some NOT divided plastic plates soon, things are going to start getting way too dry. I can't afford the ridiculous price of the clear saucer things, ($1 each!!!?) so I'm really hoping to find some of those plates. I've got somewhere around 75-90 pots in my house w/o drip saucers. I don't want to go through another winter that way.
