Name confirmation please
Comments (6)Jeez, Kerry, I can't tell from Derek's photo whether that's amoena v. rubra or Ed McW. He doesn't say what var. of amoena it is, and you can't see the form or what the leaf tips are doing, which is the best indicator. Do you have a photo of yours? According to the registry, Mr. Ed is a cv. of amoena v. amoena, but it is very close in appearance to a. v. rubra. Both are stoloniferous and smooth with no scurf to speak of. The main difference that I can see is that Ed's foliage has an arching habit, like a fountain, whereas v. rubra forms an upright vase-like rosette. That's not just growing conditions. Also the colors on Eddy are more saturated (assuming he gets enough light), in fact the leaf tips are kind of prone to turning hot pink and curling up. Not as tough a bird as ol' Ruby. The inflorescence looks about the same, but Ed's seems a bit smaller and much more likely to abort (at least for me). One of these days I'll have to see if I can get a pic of the two side by side. I got my Ed McW from Bird Rock, but I notice they're calling it amoena v. amoena (Red) now. Wonder why? Their pic is pretty accurate: Here is a link that might be useful: B. amoena v. amoena (Red) - Bird Rock...See MoreThink I have just done a Canning No-No. Please advise.
Comments (2)Not the ideal method but safe enough since they got plenty of extra processing time. The lids would have released after you moved them to the new pan - they often pop and release multiple times - and then re-sealed again. Still best to avoid this in the future.

Comments (5)Hi handymac, thanks for your response! Thanks for what you described as the punch list. That goes along with what I had originally thought (and as a newbie, wasn't completely sure). I tend to be prudent, so your thoughts on paying for what can be completed timely does resonate with me. I've only been paying for what's completed, minus 10% retainage. I guess what I'm wondering is whether to keep holding onto the retainage until the GC says "gee, I'm done", and then say, well what about these contracted items that can't be done until spring? Or should I bring it up earlier myself, rather than wait for him to? --Lee...See MoreNeed Confirmation on my color choices!! PLEASE!!
Comments (12)This is what I learned about color coordination. What I would suggest is that you find a piece of fabric that you love. Ignore the pattern and instead just look out how the colors are combined. Take a few fabric swatches into the kitchen. Your fabric choices should, if possible, include the color of your soapstone as that is the only permanent color at this time. If you can't find a fabric that includes the soapstone color, I would suggest holding the fabric pieces up to the soapstone to see which ones look best with the soapstone. When you figure out which one you like the best in the kitchen- take your colors from that fabric and use them in various parts of that room. The fabric designer has already done all the work for you in coordinating the colors on the fabric. All you need to do is decide which of the colors will be dominant in the room and which you would like to use as accessories. Also, as a side note- a friend of mine hired a designer who told her that you should always have some small accessory in every room that is red and one that is black. She said it brings life to the room and avoids that "matchy" feeling....See Morebcomplx
