This is one I picked up today at the Farmers Market, they didnt have names attached does anyone know the name of the one with the golden shaded leaves?

Thanks for the help also, and by the way it was a very pleasant day working in the yard today :)

He probably wants the glass totems free so he can send them away & "make you a lot of money" Wonder how they plan to reproduce 1930-70's glass!! That's the selling point- 1 of a kind!!Do not give him your address, maybe he knows how to get it or did you give him a card. Better make sure everything is locked up tight night & day!! Do you know others that were there? Wonder if he approached them? Be careful!! Jan

One of the projects I'm hoping to accomplish this winter is to make a whole batch of metal tags... I'll find some sheet metal at one of the craft stores, thick enough hold up and thin enough to be embossed with a stylus... then, as you said, I'll raid Larry's welding equipment for rods to use as hangers... I've used welding rod in the past as plant stakes, cutting them to length and making a large loop at the top. They work pretty well. We've been pretty lucky in that the only wild animals bold enough to walk through the gardens are the barn cats, and the wild packs of coy dogs loose in the area... the but neither does any damage besides leaving footprints in the mud! The only other animals to pass through the gardens do so underground... the moles! By next spring, I expect to have a good number of metal embossed tags to keep the plant varieties straight! I think they'll work out fine, if my plan comes together as I hope it will!

Leebea Orange Crush put out the first bloom today. We have 2 large clumps, and they are loaded with scapes. If the weather cooperates, in a week or so, we'll have many, many blooms. I don't know how cold hardy this daylily is, but I hope you have good luck with it. Avedon

Teresa-NC - recommend to you what I do for flies: Spray a little anti-bug spray on a paper towel and blot the place where they land. The flies always seem to land at the same place so it deters them from repeating. My market is having a hard time competing with the dumpster at the end of the parking lot we inhabit on Saturday mornings that is filled with refuse from the next door over's fish restaurant. Also, a small battery operated fan strategically located to blow over the offerings keeps them from landing. P.S. I go to Sugar Mountain in October and my view is all of Beech Mountain. Suppose you are looking back and seeing me on Sugar? T'wd be too funny! Nancy

Greg, I hear you buddy, I'm on my way over to clean you out a spot to sit and have a coffee. May take me a while, renting a truck for the one way trip back to Pittsburgh.
See, what friends are for.
