Of course you are right. I cannot keep up. Were I twenty years younger, I
would order twenty times as much. Ordering is now a disciplined behaviour,
takes some of the fun away! But Bobbi, do you not find yourself doing
searches, often these last few years, when you encounter a name that baffles
you?
I may not have become a better gardener but I have become a super searcher.
