Thank you everyone! tjicken, based on your guess and Google, I think the red-spined cactus may be Cereus 'Red Monster'. http://www.highsierranursery.com/Plant%20ID/Cereus%20'Red%20Monster'.htm rosemariero, my lavender succulent does look like Echeveria 'Perle von Nurnberg'. When I was trying to figure out what it was I had no idea if it was an Aeonium, Echeveria, or Sempervivum. cactusmcharris, thank you for the info on not handling my Echeveria's leaves. Beautiful cactuses in your link!

Would like to trade for reds,pinks or other hardy lilies than yellow or white.I have those.I have horsetail reed,yellow bog iris,yellow lotus seeds,green taro,Illustris ee,black taro or check my page.Thanks in advance

Summer Fashion is a heart-stealer. I love that rose. When I first started looking for roses on the Internet, it was the one that I liked best. Thanks for showing such exquisite photos of it. Renee

Those are lovely my3dogs. You are sweet for thinking of me. I do love velvet! I figure maybe someday when my kids are older and I don't have as many cats! beachlily your red sofa is lovely. thanks for sharing. Catmom and beverly too! Pal - thanks, that is great info. I am leaning towards the navy for sure now, good to know my wallet will be happier. Mags - that is gorgeous. Horchow always has such lovely things. :) Olychick - how strange that you have so many purple sets in Seattle! Pretty much all you see around here is brown and black on CL. DH is just not going to go for a used sofa again though I dont think. :( So I guess it doesnt matter. pamghatten - love that sofa. Is that a natuzzi? I think I saw one similar from them. The back cushions were attached though, so i had ruled it out. That is what is ripping on my current sofas. The seam in the back attaching the cushions to the sofa. I am hoping to go look next weekend. Not sure I will get a babysitter though yet.
