Put a bunch of pansies at the end of the drive for free today- 8" pots, some fertilizer, dead heading and a little TLC will keep them blooming for another month at least- have some other stuff just for fellow reefers- tropicals, some annuals, misc perennials- lmk what you're looking for or send me a pic and I can make suggestions

Tempted to take you up on this. I redesigned the entire outside 2 years back and though my front beds are coming in fantastic, the beds around the side of the house are a bit sparse.

Hosta la Vista Baby :D Ripped ( literally ) out a bunch of hosta for someone today- most are the old fashion green leaf variety- but has a fragrant flower. I'm fairly brutal when doing it, a small shovel and toss them on a tarp, which is on the back of my pickup. I'll go through and pot up what's good tomorrow- some wild aster, violets and other assorted perennials in the mix- will post what I have tomorrow- some impatiens, annuals shrubs and tropicals

Chris, was nice meeting you.
Thanks for the tank and all the plants.
Marc,
Always love meeting fellow reefers, and talking shop, hope you got home alright with the bad directions I gave. Let me know if you have any questions about the plants I pushed on you that you didn't ask for with no labels. For other Reefers, I still have a bunch, some aren't on the list

If anyone from my area is going to get plants let me know.
I have to frag some Nepthea for Chris and appreciate a drop off.

Stopped at the farm stand down the road from Chris. Have to say so far so good. Plums and peaches were delicious. Hope the yellow mellon and veggies are just as good.

Many of the perennials are gone/ given to good homes. I just dug up a bunch of tall asters- aster Tartaricus, and have a bunch of Begonia grandis ( hardy ) and some small corydalis, the aster and begonia are late bloomers- aster needs sun, Begonia and Corydails full to part shade- Still have a bunch of annuals and some tropicals- the Elephant ears are getting huge,
