Morden Man, I've lost my mind
Comments (3)Good Morning Carla, The rose is Ebb Tide. From what I've been able to tell based on limited observation, is that it is essentially identical to Sweet Chariot in all respects except size. I don't actually have Ebb Tide currently, but fell in love with it so much that I will be acquiring two for this spring and placing them where I currently have two Lilian Austins. There are a couple of bushes of Playboy planted on the border in front of this location with some lavender and Silvermound Artemisia. The Ebb Tide I purchased this spring was for an old friend who wanted a larger purple rose. I had Ebb Tide growing in a pot until early July and was able to witness most of the spring flush before I gave it to my friend in full bloom. I was very impressed with the vigour, disease resistance, heat tolerance, fragrance and especially the way the blooms fade and change colour with age for the limited time I had it. The rose is in the ground now at her property and is already 3.5ft tall, has stayed clean all year and has had 3 heavy flushes to date. I'm curious to see how it overwinters, but if it has inherited Sweet Chariot's toughness in this regard, I shouldn't need to worry much. Tim...See MoreI've lost my mind...

Comments (3)Why not give them a try? Conventional methods say to start them in early spring, when the soil has thoroughly thawed. So what if it's late spring? You might get something from them before the real heat hits. I think I'll try some too. PV...See MoreI've lost my mind
Comments (19)After buyong daylilies this spring, I swore I wouldn't get any more LOL. I just ordered 10 more from a local nursery that is having a 50% off sale. Most of these were now $4-8, I just couldn't pass that up. I ordered: Always Afternoon Belle Isle Bandit Best Kept Secret Chance Encounter Eggplant Escapade Mephistopheles Oliver Dragon Tooth Peach Magnolia Smokey Mountain Autumn Hush Little Baby. I've seen your pictures of most of these but does anyone have Oliver Dragon Tooth or Belle Isle Bandit? Would like to hear how it performs for you. Thanks.

Comments (13)Did you report it to the police? Obviously with calls being made on it, it's not lying around the house somewhere unless it autodials itself! I keep mine in a holster on my belt unless it's being charged. The good thing is that a basic phone is cheap to free. It's just the hassle. Hope you didn't have any private data in there. Whoever has it though has all your contacts which is not good. That's why I'd have called the police as soon as I knew it was stolen. How it happened? Who knows, but it probably just fell out of your pocket or purse. Could have been sitting in a cart and someone found it there and used it instead of turning it in. I too use prepaid. No way will I pay contract prices! A cell isn't my life - it's a convenience for which I'll pay a few dollars a month but not $40, $60, $100 or more! But that's beside the point. One thing I did was put in "ICE" numbers and then I gave the very first number in my contacts the title "If Found Please Call.." and I have my forwarding number so if someone hones finds it, there's a chance to get it back. A friend gave me that idea when her phone was left in a store, was turned in to the service desk by an honest person and the store clerk looked in the contacts and saw "home", called it and talked to her husband. Was able to page her in the store and she got her phone back before knowing it was gone! One thing though, I won't put my home number in there. I also don't put peoples' full names in there. Sometimes initials, at most, nicknames. Some people keep way too much personal info in a cell phone, especially for other people and once lost, it can fall into the wrong hands. Some keep name, address, phone #, birthday, anniversary and more! A crook's dream....See Morejaymielo
