RE: Helleborus foetiditus< now moving north

Theresa, I'm the exact opposite. I don't even put on a pair of shorts
unless it's well into the 80's (or the a/c for that matter). I couldn't
survive North of the Red River, too cold, too damp, for too bloody long.
People at work laugh at me and say they know summer is here when I
finally take off my jacket. My neighbor thinks I'm nuts because I work
in the yard all day long in summer, when everyone else retreats inside
by 11 or 12. Love it. Got to have heat. Jesse thinks I'm bonkers too -
she called a Texas summer living in a microwave once. Bring it ON!! In
the 40's here this am and I am fit to be tied! :-P"
