Joe, so did you lose some Zebrina in zone 8b? Now I'll have to get a Bordelon.

Hi Aric, what part of E. TN are you in? I'm in Knoxville. Wecome to the .org!

Nice little 'Bordelon', btw. Isn't it cool how all the members here can come together and nail down an ID? Doesn't always work like that, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Dean,

Zebrina died for me twice over the winter here. I even protected it the 2nd time. Maybe it's just me...zone 8 in Louisiana should be roughly the same as here. I keep one in a pot now.
