Julie....
You've had to suffer through TWO FROSTS this winter !!??.
That's terrible!
I feel so sorry for all of you 'zone 7-8-9 west coasters' that I went out
and dug up two of my circular tulip beds........two of my favourite beds
that I had planted in the snowtires from a '72 Ford Torino.
I have mailed both tires to: General Delivery...Seal Rock, Oregon.
First come -first served.
Maybe they will help lessen the trauma of living in such severe
conditions!
........Neil...in N.B.....
