Hi all,
Being in zone 7b, I rarely contribute as our shade here is so different
from anything 7 and lower.
However, If you do something organized, I would love to our area included.
I learn a lot from the forum,but it is still up to 70 here during the day
now and only once have we had freezing temps. We are expected to go below
the mid 40's/50 for the next week.
I still have impatients fully in bloom.
Don't want to "rub" it in but remember us next summer.
Anyone else on the forum live in this area (near Atlanta for me)
Thanks,
Laurie
