Re: more tornadoes!

May as well see a silver lining, Kitty.
Just some times I have to take off my dark glasses to see them.
All the lightening this morning is adding nitrogen to the warm rain that is falling. Garden is really popping this past week with all the rain. Can't get in to weed the garden, but too busy packing and shipping to get out there anyway.....
I do get to walk in the garden each day... several times.. with visitors who come to see the gardens and talk plants... almost never tire of that one...

Thanks for the concern and good wishes, Bonnie.
We are very fortunate, indeed. The piece of trim on the house that the wind wrapped around a tree top had to have gone right by our greenhouse roof... within one to three feet maximum. At well over 80 miles an hour..... The trees down up on the hill will make very nice walls for raised beds.... now I can make more raised beds for acidic plants... I had been going to cut down many of the trees that are now down up there... so. Actually god gave me a hand in the garden.
Have a redbud in full bloom outside my office windows... Appalachian Red... looks like the tree is on fire in the afternoon sun. Spring is so wonderful!

So glad you are O.K. I know it's a busy time, Gene. Hope not too many
plants were ruined by that hail! It was nasty here, but we were very lucky.
Blessings,

OK here
Some trees down up on the hill.. a bit of siding torn off and up in a
tree. Hail did a number of some of the plants in the display beds, but
overall we were very lucky. Neighbors around us were not.
Up to my unmentionables in nursery here....
