I just found this article Hostas for Warm Climates | Article by Plant Delights Nursery for those people living in frost-free areas that want to grow Hostas.

A fantastic nursery/catalog! I got familiar with them when I belonged to the Hosta Society! Tony's catalog is a literal gardening gold mine!

$75? That's a drop in the bucket (or in your case, a grill.)

A quite nice shiny red small flowers are seen on a shrub type or small tree plant in the garden here. I took some photos of that to share, and the last photo is ----- of ---- you know who ------ the supervisor.

UPDATE - just found the name of the plant from random google search on 'small red flowers'!

Jatropha integerrima, or common name Peregrina.

Just forgot to mention ------ the images - even though 1024 x 768 pixels approximately ----- should look much sharper than that. OrchidBoard has automatic processing that automatically re-compresses our uploaded file - so the final pics seen aren't as crisp/sharp. That is just what happens heheheh.

I had a great deal from a store and got the Weber for the price of the broil king

And yes, this year’s orchid budget will be a bit lower

Well, if the orchid budget needed to take a hit, this is a good year for it with no shows... One can spend lots of money online, but spending at shows is soooo much more efficient - faster and also much easier to ignore the amount being spent until the CC bill comes in, long after the fact. And if you use cash, it evaporates without a trace.
