Sharon, I don't know what postage would be. I got a bunch of small light weight boxes that shouldn't cost much. You could pay when the box arrives. Postage is marked and my return address is on the box. Bob, i'll see what i have left over. Address the same? How's those cactus seedlings make out I sent back in 2012? The ones I kept for myself are only 12 inches high. i thought they would be bigger. but being in the house all the time must keep them small.

growing hosta in the heat of the day in GA ... and them not scorching to ugly ... tell me what?? .. lol ... he watered a lot ... its really hard to figure out ambient light versus direct sun ... i have grow some conifers in the north side of my house.. and the only direct light they got was near dusk and after dawn .. minis ... they did fine ... because it was open sky above ... it was rather what might be called bright shade ... and i did grow hosta i the same place ... in my MI ... if all other variables are just peachy for your zone 7... [see what i did there..lol ] ... then i suspect you might have more success than you worry about .... but you are probably just going to have to try it ... and roll the dice ... its very hard for anyone to give you spot on advice in your garden in your shade in your GA ... on any definitive basis ... now all that said ... i have had problems in my high humidity hog heat summer MI with various types of very congested pines ... and that might be what junkie was thinking about ... when he made suggestions that werent pine based ... you can overcome some of the pine issues by cleaning them out religiously .. which i never did ... someone else will be able to tell you the name of the disease issue ... maybe plathoforujurasik or something like that .. pretty sure it begins with a P ... but after that.. lol ... soo ... just give it a try ... and try things other than pine ... and become your own local expert ... never stop trying ... ken
