Re: everybody outside today?

Chris I've ordered yearly from JS/VE since 1990.  One of the best catalogs
around.  I get the bulbs for our MG sale from them too.  This time I had a
bunch of snake flowers, similar to a Chimchimcheree, left over.  I was going
to plant them, but now thinking I'll pot them for sale next year.  About Nov
10 they start their clearance sale.
