Well, that settles that!  A short thread, but I'm glad to see traffic on 
the list.  :)

How is everyone doing out there?  What can I do to get people talking again?

Here in Urbana, IL it feels like fall already.  Asters aren't quite blooming
yet, but the temperatures are low, that fall smell is starting to appear,
and the crickets are chirping away!

Some of my new favorite plants are getting ready to bloom, too.  Allium
thunbergii 'Ozawa' is an *awesome* plant and I keep trying to get more.
Although Kalimeris integrifolia and Kalimeris incisa 'Blue Star' have
already been blooming for a few weeks, Kalimeris yomena 'Shogun' still
hasn't opened (but it's close!)  The asters (like 'Raydon's Favorite')
are also starting to swell, but there's no color yet!  I saw that the
various turtleheads (Chelone) are also open now.
