I've pulled all the plants out of my basement now except for some plumeria; they'll come out when I make room on the patio. Planted my huge E. glauca (7+ft. tall and have to use a dolly to move it). My Siam Rubies are still in pots, as are a sikkim and another two that have lost labels. Put in the ground a E. Maurelli, Orinoco, zebrina, double dwarf cav (the plant is two separate p-stems). Additionally planted a host of ee's and cannas from the basement. Need to get my camera connection replaced before I can post more pics. The basjoo clumps are pushing up p-stems all over; they didn't mind the past winter at all even with no protection.

Planted three Dahlias bought yesterday
A lot was planted early march but due to no sun its taking an absolute age to appear, signs of growth but painfully slow. I bought a yellow and a purple Zantedeschia to plant out today . I have been admiring those for two weeks and yesterday took the plunge.

I also planted a thai black in the ground. I had an ensete Maurelli in its spot, but I dug it up and potted it because I just dont think its going to get very tall this year. My thai black was crawling along last year, but so far this year its growing great so I think it deserves to be in the ground. My ice cream banana finally decided to start growing so I do think it has a chance to be a very nice sized plant by fall since its already 5 feet tall.
