Hey everybody--thanks to all of you that attended breakfast here and the plant sale in Laporte. For those of you that weren't able to make it, you missed some WONDERFUL instant coffee (yes I am being sarcastic). At any rate--it was a fun way to spend the morning and we all came home with some nice bargains to boot. I really appreciate your going to help me show our appreciation to the Four Seasons Gardeners, which is our sponsoring club. They have been really welcoming and positive, and it was great to be able to give them some of the same back. All our new babies are planted, and hopefully they will get nice and big so when the time comes we will be able to share them and keep the circle going.
And on the way home we found a nice new place to buy plants--Rosenbaum's nursery off of Joliet Rd. in Door Village. For club members of the hosta persuasion, she has about 300 cultivars total; not all are for sale yet, but she had some excellent crowns in 5 dollar pots, and some other nicely grown stock. She is not open Monday and Tues. except for wholesale orders, but the rest of the week is okay.
And we had two guests go along--Hayden and Sherri, both of whom we hope will join the club at some point.
Didn't take any photos--someone needs to get on the ball and start taking pics for me to post--of course you would think that someone would be ME, but since I can't be counted on to remember my own name, much less to carry a camera, its not surprising that nothing has happened yet. If nothing else I could have taken a photo of the KILLER house we saw on the way! Hayden already has dibs on the barn, and Rob and I will rent a room from him. The rest of you can fight over the house!
Hail to the dirt! See you tomorrow at Mary Ann McG's. Anyone needing direction can stop here on the way and follow us.
