RE: Coreopsis Ruby

I saw that in the Wayside catalog or somewhere. Wonder if it comes back
in zone 8. It is gorgeous and was waiting for the price to come down my
OWN self - LOL....

BTW - should be finished 'cleaning' the black hollyhock seeds tonight.
They should go out this week. Jesse, I'll bring yours w/ me on Friday to
avoid the redneck mail robbers!!
