Ack! My local garden center has a sale going on
Annuals are 50% off, perennials are 25% off. Guess who came home with a bunch more plants! Now out to the garden to plant.

2. I am!
I will sleep good tonight. Still have a little more to do tomorrow, but getting there.

Can't imagine what you'll go through once you get to NM. I will be sympathizing!

I read your post earlier this weekend and was a bit envious. I was thinking about how lucky you were and how lovely your garden will become in the months to come....UNTIL I ran into a serious sale from a mail-order nursery.. and snagged 2 corkscrew vines and two brugs,( a pink one and white one with GINOURMOUS flowers!!!), for 1.95 each. I've been planting seeds for things like Cestrum nocturnum, Tiare, night blooming stock, red morning glory and perfumed sweet peas. I also planted Clerodendrum ugandense, orange jasmine and arabian jasmine. I'm just so tickled. Most of these plants are in GIGANTIC wire baskets packed with sphagnum moss which get direct sun in the first half of the morning and the last 4 hours of the day. Oh, to have a digital camera!! Is there anyway to set up a place where we post photos of our gardens, showing the progress and beauty through the seasons?
