RE: now covered plants-Question re: Astilbe

Donna - I do exactly the same thing. Sugar just sits on the porch
looking at me like I'm nuts. Just like she will tonight when I put all

yesterday - I did put my spider plants out in the rain for an hour or
so. Nice to know I'm not the only one who does that.

LOL
