Further research has lead me to methods of grafting a tomato plant to a potato plant and growing them both from the same plant in the same spot.

This I have to try!

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

I assume the plugs will go into six packs of some sort?

What kind of perennials? I'm adding to mine this year. So far, 4 clematis and a Lilly of the Valley for the shade garden. I'm scouting around for a couple more flowering plants for the shade garden.

Plugs will go in 6pks and more hanging baskets...
A lot of different perennials.  Yesterday worked on day lilies and peonies and hostas .   Nothing like some hostas to fill in a shady spot.....

I have well established Hosta  and  two types of braoaleaf Plantain along with two varieties of Oxalis and a Bleeding Heart in my shade garden.  There's one corner I want to fill in though. It gets partial sun during the summer. I should probably place another large pot there and fill it with annuals each year.

Maybe I'll bury a good sized pot and surround it with stones. I also think I'm going to set a couple more clusters of Oxalis. Eyre really pretty perennial plants and flower all summer.

Make a rock kind of garden out of it and plant some type of  sedum ground cover.  ?

I like that idea. Maybe Sedum ellacombianum. It's a shade loving variety. Part sun is good.

I was in Wally World today and they already have scads of annuals in. Didn't stop at Lowes. I do know that the entire 3 sides of the store are lined with mulch pallets 5 deep. I can't even guess at how many bags are there.

Lisa's getting over being sick, she'd drugging herself enough to make it through the day. Too bad you live so far away, you'd be more than welcome at our feast 8)

Same to you Eddie! You'd all be welcome here too. I've got enough food in the smoker to feed a small army, a whole brisket, a pork shoulder, and a pan of beans.  Momma's making the tater salad, cole slaw, corn bread, and dog tick pie!    ;D
     One more with the one we're after and we'll have two.
The brook trout is the prom queen of the trout world, and a promiscuous prom queen at that!
