Bless his heart, he is too shy to post, so O.C. is doing it for him. He said that in our zone, 7b that it is considered a perennial, but doubts that it WOULD be in Iowa. Better bring it in. O.C. is going to leave some out and see if it REALLY WILL come back, If so, he will plant some MORE outside next year.......

Good Luck, John

Lucy, I even set him up

Post by oldcoot »

when I went down to see him, with a bookmark of the index page. Make him access it so I was sure he could. I bet if he DOES go digital next year, we will see LOTS of his pictures. His yard is beautiful. But then it should be, he and tempie have been living in the same house 34 YEARS. Has done a LOT of work around it and it shows.

Tht Old Coot named John
