Doesn't surprise me that your happy, they are just such a great great company to buy daylilys from. I pretty much only buy from them since I found them. Not only are there plants healthy and large, but they send awesome bonus and they are super friendly to deal with -- great customer service. I'm sure they sent that eyed-daylily as an oversight -- they are very consciencious. Good luck with your new plants:-)

Lol, to this day LEH still gives me the shudders. She was such a disease magnet, lol! But up in Ohio at least you got indirect sunlight. Bustopher's garden has nice dappled shade/sun so she's not going to have such blotchy yucky colors like mine in the blazing direct Midwest rays. It made her blooms as small as 2.5" across, that is even if they bloomed at all. They were too busy wilting. Would have to keep watering sometimes as much as twice a day. There was a span of 4 weeks that we had merciless heat. You won't ever get as hot as in our locale. But boy do I love looking at Abraham D'Arby! Each time Boxofrox shows his, I start to droooool and my fingers keep twitching each time I look at Crepuscule and wonder what A.D. would look like in its place, lol! Makes it impossible to resist the temptation. But as the Kansas gardener with the 70 roses warned me, do not do the Austins if you are all-organics. And if I killed A.D. I would go as berserk as when I killed my Gemini. Too much heartache! I still also think of the tea I killed, Mrs. B.R. Cant. I loved that tea, a wonderful unique grapefruit fragrance. I had no business growing her. Her canes still had plenty of green until February, then our wildly fluctuating temperatures drove her to her grave (from 80 degrees to 28 degrees within just 5 hours' was the worst for example). Well, this year will be the last year I will grow a rose inappropriate to my climate conditions and to my zone. I have one more poor rose that I'll be torturing but I dare not even mention who she is. When she blooms I'll be called out as the Most Evil Gardener, :-X

Nick, so when are you going to move back to Columbus? Have you already graduated? If so, congratulations! Hope you find your ideal field of work too! When I first graduated I had to freelance for a year and a half before I was hired full-time. I was blessed in that I found a wonderful job with wonderful boss/coworkers. But it did take me while. In the art field it can take some time because back then, computer graphics did not start until 4 years after I graduated, lol! I actually majored in traditional illustrations and specialized in children's magazines, etc. My first job was doing Snoopy and Peanuts product designs, hehe! I still keep in contact with my former boss as well and I have wonderful memories of those times.... Well, we are looking forward to more photos of the garden-in-process, Nick!

OH Nancy. That looks like a device of torture. I can see how it would be easier to do if not working. I hope it helps. I totally understand the job stress. Dealing with the same myself The stress for me brought on the worst flair of psoriasis I have ever had. Still suffering from it. Better though now. Been over a year and a half I can barely walk. Like you low pay no befits and yet a couple councilmembers want to own me. Well it is not going to happen. I work approx 6 % or less of the year for my job and the other 94% is my own. They are NOT taking that away from me. Already talked to my boss about it and he said keep facts and figures close at hand as this will be challenged at the next meeting when I finally get the FIRST raise I have had in 4 years. I do not plan to resign because if they fire me I will get unemployment. They have no excuse to fire me. I have done nothing wrong. One councilperson even wants to control my PERSONAL home answering machine. Says the message is not acceptable for a person of my position. Well HELLO this is MY phone. In fact my message is this. You have reached the home of Me and hubby. Since I am the one that pays this phone bill I choose who I allow to annoy me. Leave a message and you will be lucky if I call you back. Now is that so bad?? Yes it is but I have had city phone calls at home starting at 6:50AM up to as lats as 10:30 at night. What makes a person think I want to talk to them about their water bill in my living room. I do have an office. Since I have had this message my phone calls have been reduced to about 90%. PHEW and my health is improving. I no longer answer the phone at home unless I hear who it is and want to talk to them. I refuse to pay for caller ID and then have to grab phone book and try to figure who it is calling. Since I took charge of my own feelings and voiced my opinion to several people my health is improving. Nancy do what you want to do. I hope you heal. I know that Lymphedema is nasty stuff. Stress is nasty stuff. We need to avoid it as best as possible. One little thing I have been doing is taking Holy Basil. It is a great calming herb. No prescription needed. Just be sure to check with your doctor about it first. Sorry I did not come over this side sooner. I forget about this side. How did the interview go??
