Ruthie, I just bought them for pets. I love ducks and I've only had muscovies and mallards and I wanted to get some different kinds and watch them grow up and then give them the best life possible for them. I didn't for no toher reason, I just want them for loving pets. Sullicorbitt, I bet they will be adorable! Send some pics when you get some! I'll send some of mine too when I get some!

Wow! What a great selection of plants you have there. Sweet. Thanks for sharing your garden with us. What part of SoCal are you growing these in?

Nat, LIGHT OF THE WORLD has been a great plant so far. Last year was its first in the garden and it's doing great. FEMINIST BOOKSTORE has been a little disappointing. It's been doing fine and I love the flower, but for a Hanson plant the bud count and branching has been disappointing. Think I will have to move it and see how it does. Avedon, I love MT. ECHO SUNRISE. Saw it on a garden tour and knew I had to have it. Chris, PATTERNS IN TIME was a bonus plant several years ago and I ended up liking it better than anything I'd ordered.

I've got probably 15-20 tigers at any one time on the lantana and butterfly bushes, pipelines have gone through 5-6 broods this year already... one monarch hangs around but no eggs this summer yet, had a brood early spring though..
