They're here.....first shipment of new plants was awaiting me at the post office Saturday...kinda early yet, but I'll work around it. (Hey, at least nearly all of my snow is gone.)
I like this little message....like I don't already see plants as animate organisms-now they want to be released from the box! I swear I heard them, too....;)
Well the 'ice plant collection' looks pretty good...
...this is
Musa basjoo-hardy banana-very nice sized! He'll stay indoors awhile for sure...allegedly hardy to zone 5, I'm zone 4, but if I plant him next to the house facing south....
...the only puny plant was this golden hakone grass; 3" pot for $14.99!! I had a credit with these people, Spring Hill, otherwise I don't usually order anything from them unless it's "bareroot", in the past I've had best results with plants shipped that way. Overall though, I cannot say I'm too unhappy with this shipment. There was more....see next post....

If you want succulents and iceplant, you do not need to buy succulents and iceplant. I will give you succulents and iceplant. I have succulents and iceplant coming out of my ears.
Really? That would be WAY cool...I'll let you know after I see how this goes. BTW, let me know if there's anything I have that you may like a sample of...cutting, seeds, whatever!
Seriously, you'd be doing me a favor by letting me give you succulents. It would assuage a lot of guilt I have about composting them. Succulents multiply like tribbles in my garden.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to tell you many of their names. For some reason, I just can't get serious about learning the names of succulents. (Note to self: It's because I don't have a book on succulents. If I had a succulents book, I would read it.)
