No usual aphids when I looked, the plant is inside the house... I did notice those little flies you get when a fruit or vegetable is starting to spoil though. They were flying around the pot. So any potting soil recommendations for gooseberries/currants? Or no one is growing them in pots? lol

I'm helping out at my kids school, where they are knocking down some buildings and are auctioning off a # of mature plants. Rhodies, purple plums, cherry trees, lots of pines/spruce - all very large though, would need real equipment to dig up and move. SOmeone from the school may be offering a digger for the day (june 18 or 21? A Sat.). I doubt the large plants are going to go in the auction, if they don't I could let you know, and for a very small donation you could get. Are you anywhere near Woodinville? Let me know if you wnat more info. Cathie

Sounds like a great ideae to meet when you come down to Ikea, with gas prices the way they are. I'm just over the line in west Hamilton, too. I've set my email addy to show, or use the Gardenweb forms, email me when you are planning to come down. Also a great excuse for me to trawl Ikea ;-) Tell me if you want any of those critters I listed. I also have chives, but there's rarely a shortage of them :-D
