Hello Bobbi,

I cannot remember when I have written as many posts as I have today.  REALLY
bad icey weather.

The bay leaf, laurus nobilis,  discussed was meant to be a potted plant which
could be used in the shady area of your garden until light frost.  It is then
wintered over on a cold porch or similar.  We had been discussing container
plants to lighten up the hosta beds when the spring interest passed.
