Speaking of weeds.  I had three large pots that I planted with solid 
orange pansies and Stargazer Lilies.  In one pot something began to grow 
and I usually pull out all weeds but this time I let it go. Later on it 
turned out to be a single sunflower.  It actually looked kind of neat!  
Now I have planted leftover White Christmas Caladiums in the pots and 
plan to bring them in for the winter.

Anyone else grow things off-season?
