Maybe so but up here in the Northern White Mountains (N.H.), I was
screaming for mercy from the mosquitos AND black flies - the garden
was unbearable but we were out there anyway, trying to swat with mud-
caked gloves (pretty hard when they get under the eye-glasses) - I
took the glasses off when I was transplanting and couldn't see the
name of the cultivar but it was worth killing a few of those blood-
suckers!
I went to pick up some new plants today from Mountain River Flower
Farm here and I knew we were in the cyberspace era when my plants
had `e_galla' tags rather than my name....
