Looks like a tuberous begonia so it will die down at first frost or cold weather. But you can keep the tuber and replant next year, or in your climate, you could probably just keep it dry in the pot over the winter and start it into growth again next spring.

Hi Would agree with that They are winter dormant though there is an evergreen type but leaves are very different . Very nice specimen but you have to put up with "sausages" for a time .lol gary

Are you asking how far apart to plant the Stella seedlings or the entire group of plants? You didn't mention the size of your ditch area you are trying to plant in. You posted that you have orange and green daylilies already.I'm not familiar with any daylily that has a green bloom. What size do they get? Are they large leafed? Do they increase quickly? Maybe a little more info will help us to make suggestions. Julia

Everyone -- Let's not get confused here... the "version of" Family Tree Maker has little, if anything, to do with membership at Ancestry.com; and the membership at Ancestry.com is not contingent upon use of the Family Tree Maker software. Yes, Ancestry.com is now owned by the Church of the Latter Day Saints (I hope I got that right -- I'm Catholic), and Ancestry.com now owns the company that produces the Family Tree Maker software (it used to be owned by Genealogy.com, when they were separate companies). BUT, you don't have to have a membership at Ancestry.com to purchase and use the Family Tree Maker software; just as you don't have to have the Family Tree Maker software to have a membership to Ancestry.com. The software is used to enter all of the information that you gather during your hours/days/months/years of research. It organizes it and allows you to produce charts, reports, etc. Family Tree Maker is only one of several genealogical software programs. Everyone has their preference, but I will say that Family Tree Maker is my preference. It integrates beautifully with Ancestry.com, in that you can be working in the software and then activate a search on Ancestry.com for records pertaining to that person. You can have a membership at Ancestry.com without owning Family Tree Maker software. You could be using another genealogical software to enter the information that you find on Ancestry.com. OK, having said all that, there ARE differences in Ancestry.com memberships. There is a World Deluxe membership and there is also a U.S. Deluxe membership. If you opt to subscribe to the U.S. Deluxe membership, you will not have access to any records from outside the United States -- for example, you won't be able to see the Census records from England or Canada. You won't see any records from France, Australia, etc., etc. If you have the World Deluxe membership, you will have access to EVERYTHING. Also, once you determine whether you want to "stay domestic or go global," you'll need to decide on a subscription period. You can subscribe on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis. Yes, if you subscribe to the World Deluxe on an annual basis, you will have to pay $299.40 in one lump sum (yay for credit cards). BUT, that's less than $1 per day (it's 82 cents per day), and it's less than if you paid for 12 months at the monthly rate ($359.40 total). So, start saving your pennies, and tell everyone you know that all you want for Christmas is money towards an Ancestry subscription! :-) I'm not sure when Ancestry changed it, but there used to be four different memberships -- U.S. Standard, U.S. Deluxe, World Standard, and World Deluxe. I think it's a lot easier now that they've narrowed it down to two. OH -- for those of you who live in Canada, Australia, Italy, France, etc. -- Ancestry does have websites "in" different countries, and I'm certain the pricing is different there -- for example, Canada would have a Canada-only membership as well as the World Deluxe; Italy has an Italy-only membership, etc. So, if that's all you need, check out those sites: When you have an Ancestry membership, you can also create a tree on the Ancestry.com web site. You can make it "public," so that anyone else with an Ancestry membership can see it, or you can make it "private," so only you can see it. Either way, you can send (through Ancestry) an e-mail invitation to anyone so that they can view your tree, regardless of whether or not they have a membership. Also, when you have a "public" tree, other folks with Ancestry memberships cannot see details on anyone who is, or may be, still living. All they will see is "Living LastName." They can tell if the person is male or female, but that's it. If you have genealogical software with information already entered, you export it to Gedcom format (don't worry - you'll see that choice when choosing to export), and then you can upload that Gedcom file to Ancestry.com to create your tree there. The really cool thing about having a tree on Ancestry.com is that the web site is always searching in the background, and when it thinks it has a match, you will see a little green leaf attached to the person's name, and then you can click on that to review the possible matches. If any of them are valid, you can attach them as a reference source to your tree. You'll also get e-mail notices when Ancestry. thinks it has found a match. I will say, though, that it can be a pain to keep the two trees (online and in the Family Tree Maker software on your computer) in synch! If you buy the Family Tree Maker software, always, always, always buy the most recent version. They are currently selling the 2011 edition (it was recently released). They come out with an upgrade nearly every year like clockwork, but you don't need to upgrade every year - you only need to upgrade if you think they've added enough new stuff to make it worthwhile. If you are an Ancestry.com member, you will receive a discount on future software upgrades, and possibly even receive a free copy. (I'm currently using the 2006 version, even though sitting here on the shelf are the CDs for every year's version since then, including 2011!) OH - if you buy the software, one of the "perks" is that you get a free 14-day trial membership at Ancestry.com. But, don't say I didn't warn you.... genealogy research is extremely addicting!
