Tonya, Karen and I were the last there, waiting for Meredith before we headed over to Ragna's. We walked around to make sure all trash was picked up and I spotted the willow peeking over the top of the trash can. I told Karen the awful secret you shared with me and knew we had to rescue it. Luckily it was a plant that Karen wanted.... you should have heard the lust in her voice..... so she took it home to give it life! :-) Thank you everyone who brought me goodies ! patty

Would anyone be interested in vegetable sets? I have quite a few left after planting my garden. I also have some rooted purslane cuttings and plan to root some cuttings this weekend from my Lady Banks rose bush.You can find out about varieties here. -> http://happenings.hereinmygarden.com/

Well, as you all know our wonderful plant swap has been put on hold. But while waiting for things to settle down so we can meet again this is a fun read from Felder Rushing's blog; Plant Swap Treasures: Pssst! I got jewels of Opar and a string of pearls… wanna make a deal? Among other neat things he talks about is the back story of the common name for Talinum paniculatum. Wow! I'm a Tarzan fan from the old comic book days and I never knew that! Happy gardening! :-)

From Mizan: "Mike has just got off talking to the mosque administrator concerning the plant swap gathering. "They concluded that we should heed the latest recommendation of “less than 10 people” guide line. Therefore we should cancel it for now and postpone it till later in the fall? Or when it is declared safer? We are still welcome to use the facility as future swaps venue during safer times." Thank you Mizan and Mike for everything you've done, and will keep doing, to facilitate the swap.
