Hi Marge,

   Thanks!

   The eggplant is actually in a container along with some other annuals,
   but I haven't had any problems and haven't used any special treatments.

   It's planted, with some light lavender petunias, a Blackie sweet potato,
   some bright pink petunias, yellow marigolds, Vinca vines, and probably
   some other stuff that I'm not remembering right now.

   Like Donna guessed, they're marking flags over Impatiens to keep Romeo
   from trampling them.

   My goal is no grass, I think.  ;)

   I think it's just tilted against the table; I do that when they're not 
   in use so that the cushions don't become saturated with water.
