Julia, I just hope that I can find them here, but I'm very happy to know that they are so affordable! that is great news! So far, I haven't seen them, but I'll keep looking. Maybe I can mail order them if I can't. I heard of a garden center in the city that I haven't been to yet, so I'll check there when I get back to the city. I would think that Home Depot would have them, but I've never seen them there, either. My choices here are very limited, due to where I live! But, I can order things online, so I'm happy! Are there any good online places that you could recommend?

So, I've got lots and lots of rocks here. It's like rock city! But, they are huge rocks. Boulders would be a better description for a lot of them. I think that I could put some dirt and sand in the nooks of some of them that are pushed close together, and plant them there. Is that a bad idea? I sure hope not! It would make those rocks a lot more enjoyable to look at! And, it would solve my problem of wanting to move all the rocks down the hill, which will never happen in a million years. Rolling on the floor laughing I'm also a little worried about the amount of rain we get, but I think if I add enough sand to the mix, it will help. I will have to learn as I go, I guess. We've had 6 inches of rain so far this year, not counting the snow, and I consider that wet. What I've read is that these plants don't like wet! Hopefully with good enough drainage, I can get them to survive! I'm on a mission now! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing
