Red Russian does have pinkish veins, so yours is something else, clintster7. I just found one called White Russian, so that is maybe what you have elisa_z, thanks for sharing your experience with overwintering Kale. I've not succeeded with it (the voles like kale) but will plan to leave a few plants of my red Russian this year to see how it fares. Next year I'll look into one of your hardier varieties since I love plants that I can harvest until deep snow and then again in early spring.

It's morning glory. Floral is absolutely right. It won't grow in my garden either, lol. They will really grow all over your garden. The good news is, they are annuals. They reseed themselves every year. The bad news is, they reseed themselves every year, lol. Decide right now, do you want it? If you don't, Round Up only the morning glory leaves when it is not windy out. Round up will kill it through the leaves, keeping the plant from "eating" sunlight. It will not harm the soil at all. Spray it soon, you don't want it to bloom and seed, or you will have to do it all over again next year. Shield any plant around it with newspaper while spraying, just in case. Remember, if it blooms, it will seed, you will have them again next year.

There are a few types of KD (knock down) connectors. I think the "cross dowels" are probably strongest for your application. Rockler also carries a variety of bed frame connectors for a stronger, but more permanent solution. Here is a link that might be useful: Connectors at Rockler

I looked at the Ethan Allen website & if it is Ethan Allen it is discontinued as they do not have the bed on their website. I have never heard of Sara Fine Furniture as a manufacturer but my web search shows some furniture stores by that name. I don't know if you are in that area but if it was purchased from them they may can help you. The info on the bed frame may not have been any help as many manufacturer get their frames/rails from a supplier.
