Thanks, Fred.
For the past two years, I have been storing the Amaryllis pots on their sides, in a dark room. I watched an online video about this method, and it seems to work. Three out of seven Amaryllis bulbs are showing a developing flower bud, at the bulb tops, already. The flower buds appear even before the Amaryllis flower stem grows. Right now, I have a piece of chicken wire over the pots, to ward off pesky squirrels.

Yeah, there are alot of plants commonly called "Laurels", but are not true Laurels. Quite a few are in the genus, Prunus, and are more closely related to stone fruits, like peaches, cherries, and plums, than they are to Bay Laurels
.

My Cast Irons are spreading, but in gaps. Notice the leaf outside the Wall o Water. It was covered BETWEEN the Wall o Water, and the rose cone, because it was too far from the rest of the clump.

Believe it or not, I spotted some collard plants, at Home Depot, today. They are asking 6 DOLLARS, for 6 pack of plants, or $4 for ONE collard start in a 3 inch pot.

How expensive!

I'm glad I started my own from seed. From a $2 packet, I could have grow way more than just 6 plants for those prices.
