Re: meeting- was drought

Bring gloves, knee pads, plastic refuse bags--and, for days like today, shades, hats, and sunblock.

As Karen (stitch) mentioned, we are becoming a clump here, so maybe we
should plan a tour....it would be a long day, but we could visit my

garden,
Vera's, Andrea's, Karen's, Kathy's and Chris's. Day two could be Cathy and
Ceres.. who else is close there?

Maybe we should plan a progressive dinner tour? Breakfast at my place,
lunch

at Vera's and dinner at Chris's?

Ok- forget it, I was just dreaming.... need more sleep! :)

I am always up for a road trip. I just need time to get the animals

taken
care of. It would really be great if we could all meet somewhere. Donna,
I'm sure your DH would just love to be inundated by us. :-)

O.K., since my life seems very chaotic at the moment and I don' t have
time to do the planning....if somebody will plan this wonderful get
together....I WILL BE THERE! Just to meet everybody face to face would
be so AWESOME.

Sounds like a great idea to me.

WOW...what a group we have here. Everybody willing to chip in and

send

Pam more plants. I love this group. And Pam..you KNOW you can have
whatever I have..no problem. We have had a horrible drought in

Oklahoma
as well. Not as bad as Texas...but pretty bad. I figured what lives,
lives. What dies....well, I'll just shop some more.

Pam, I always have Russian Sage, too, so if that doesn't come back,
I
can
get you some from here. Also, I'm sure I'll have some daylilies. If
you
can tell me how to start some caryopteris for you, I'd be glad to do
that
for you too. (Weigela is not something I have, unfortunately, nor
any

Pineapple sage or Wild Thing salvia.)

Let me know how to help and I'll get it out to you.

Blessings,
Bonnie (SW OH - zone 5)

Yes, quite few. Pineapple sage croaked, the caryopteris (four of
them) also, even the Russian sage which likes dry conditions, I

think

all
of
three of those are toast too. Even my big Wild thing salvia isn't
looking
too good. My weigela is a goner, going to replace it w/ a big

rosemary.

No
telling if any of the grass will come back. If not, I'll just let

the

weeds
take over the lawn. Been keeping all my viburnums well watered and

the

roses. I think they will be OK, but only March will tell. Most of

the
mints and purple coneflowers are history too. Some daylilies have
disappeared, but they may be hunkering down, at least I hope so. All
I'm
planting next Spring are rosemary, lavender, thyme and salvias. And
I
will
replace the purple coneflowers. They're a must w/ a bird & butterfly
sanctuary. I may do a few peppers in pots, because I must have my
peppers.
But I won't plant a big bed of them again. Ten months of this. It's
crazy.
Thanks for letting me vent Chris. I can't tell you how badly I want
to

take
all the flood waters and redirect them to Oklahoma & Texas.
