Re: I'm Here!

Well, good. Feels nice, I'll bet, to have the anxiety part settled.
Sounds like rip-out is going to be the first major undertaking. That should give you a chance to discover what the below-ground barrier is and figure out what [if anything] to do about it. Sounds like fun.

Hi all-I'm officially in the new house. Moved over the weekend and planted my first plants tonight. It was a chore!!!! There is something under the soil that feels like concrete. I think someone put something down to try and keep the running bamboo in check- didn't work of course but now there are only certain places I can plant. I have a lot of work ahead of me clearing out. I'm thinking of hiring someone to help me. Wow is there a lot! SO, anyway I'm happy and excited and wish I could spend all my time outside as it's gorgeous here these days. However, I have to get the inside into some sort of order as well. My mother is coming this weekend!

Ok, send your address when you get settled, and I'll have DH start digging. On second thought, perhaps I should have him start digging this weekend - you know how far down Crinum plant themselves!

Thanks Daryl! That's very nice of you. Any Crinum you want to part with I'd love, and some Musa basjoo would be great too. Got a ton of ruellia, but thanks!
