Re Cat-Free Plants

I     agree with Rusty.  I enjoyed my free plants very much and found that I often found the offerings to stretch my garden in ways that I might not have done choosing from catalog pictures.  Especially when I was starting out.
    When Kepple was in California.  I visited his gardens and then ordered from him.  He sent me some of his new introductions at that time for extras and to this day I am enjoying them.  He also noticed that I had ordered a lot of Blyth Iris and included a couple of these as extras.  I still remember my joy at receiving them and my joy when they bloomed and were so spectacular.
    I don't feel the least bit greedy about enjoying a "gift" whatever the motive.   There is joy in the giving and joy in the receiving which we need in these troubled times. z*@directcon.net  CA  Sierra Foothills zone 7 elev 3100

A plant, a leaf, a blossom, but contains
A folio volume.  We may read and read

As the Iris glow with their colors so bright
It makes me feel younger too,
As I enjoy their splendor with delight!
