    Randy moved one of my wheel barrows from the backyard to the front last night to hold some plants I bought a couple of days ago. I know they will outgrow this home next year probably but then I will put them in pots in the shade area I am working on.

    I bought these a couple of weeks ago and have just been forgetting to show them off. They don't go in the wheel barrow. ;)

    Nice additions, Toni. :D I'm looking forward to seeing them in their permanent homes.

    What a nice bunch of newbies. You have an exotic taste in plants, I say that! It's always so nice to see what you come across.
    I'm like Droopy and am anxious to see "the Wheelbarrow Gang" in their final place.
    Nice going, Toni.

    I like the variety of textures and foliage you have there. Can't wait to see how it all comes together. :)
