Wow...quite the bounty! I could only hope for such things for my birthday. Plants look great...I wish you the best of luck with them! The black EE's are soo cool. It'll surely darken up once it gets some sun.

We take grass out too! My dream is to have pathways with little clearings here and there. Can't get too carried away though. We live in the boondocks but I still want some semblence of organized curb appeal. And we've learned that we have to keep things close to the house or we don't take care of it very well. Our big garden way out back has turned into raised beds off the side of the house with automatic watering.

You reminded me that I want to get a black EE too! You have some exciting plants there!

I love the plants, but I try to hint to people that I don't want any more LOL. I have over 150 now & it's too much work. 2 years ago I got a gift certificate to a nursery - YEAH! --spent it on potting soil etc.

Hey Greg, Happy Birthday!!! I think those are some great gifts. My birthday is coming May 4th. I always hope for more plants and of course I get them. I've run out of room
but somehow I find space. My husband will say what would you like to do for your
B'day and I always say lets go to Dearborn mkt down the shore. You can spend hours
looking at plants. Hope they have banana plants again. Like I really need more.
