I appreciate all the nice comments, Thank You!!.... OUTofSPITE....you questioned the pots....there are six pots....a 6" thru 14" plus a catch tray with holes drilled in it...stacked tray and 14" pot...then put a steel rebar rod thru middle hole and into the ground...filled with potting soil....another pot threaded onto rod..fill with soil...and again till finish with pots.... wind did not move one bit.....I used Wal-Marts plastic pots...I did find I had to rotate pots by turning bottom tray, to keep flowers growing even.....they were too shaded next to fence I guess.

Very Nice Pics. I have just become insterested in expanding my garden into some containers, also, to allow more space for bigger crops. Very motivating and exciting. Nichol

Thanks so much Edna, what great pictures! We can buy those up at Wal-Mart-I'll have to get one. Well today when I got home I noticed he was not anywhere in the container but, when I looked underneath the paper towel there he was! He was fatter and turning a greenish color. So I went outside and got some dirt that I knew was clean and in he went. Just amazing really, I've never had a moth before, this is my first one. I know that it won't be my last though. I just ordered Luna and Cecropia cocoons. I am so excited and I can not wait until next year when they hatch and I can experience how beautiful they are. Hopefully one of them will be a female and she will lure a nice healthy male for herself to mate with--then she can lay tons of eggs~Here's to wishful thinking! Aggie

Thanks Josh for the reply! I have them under the ledge of the patio, so they are getting some wind protection. I could put them in the greenhouse away from the fan and they would be better protected wind wise, but I think it may be still too hot for them in there? Yes Josh, I love blood oranges! I have another blood named Vaniglia Sanguigno I got from Logees when I was on vaca in CT, but it is not in fruiting stage yet. I just think blood oranges are so beautiful! And i am also excited for tasting a finger lime. The vesicles are round and the juice is suppose to just pop in your mouth. I was reading some fancy chef article or something that says because the vesicles are round and closed until bit into, the release of flavor in very intense and tasty along with the added addition of texture when it pops open. Again, the article explained it much better than I am here. I hope they have the red finger lime in the US one day. What is considered "too hot" for newly transplanted citrus? Mike, I know the worst part is the change of seasons and hauling the citrus in! I did this for years. But now I have the greenhouse and it has made a tremendous difference! For the first time i did not have to worry about leaf drop due to indoor lighting issues. If I remember correctly Mike, you have a greenhouse, but still bring them in around February when it gets real cold? I kept mine in the greenhouse all winter with heat of course. I only kept it in the low 40's on the coldest nights, sometimes even getting to the upper 30's, experimenting since it was my first year, and the citrus had no issues! I was suprised! Definitely reacted much better to the greenhouse than all the years being in my house with lights. Although I did not have the greenhouse up yet when Sandy came, which was a good thing because who knows if it would of gotten destroyed. But when Sandy came, I had my one room in the house filled with all my citrus and figs and other special plants so I would not lose them in the storm. Then, I had hauled them all back outside just to have them all hauled back inside less than a week later because of our freak Halloween snow storm! I am sure you had part of that too Mike? Oh, before I go, should I give them any epsom salts or vinegar now, or when I first fertlize over the weekend? Thanks guys! Christy
