I think I might have some saved from last year.  If not I'll save you some Tam.

Thank you.  I had some but they didn't come up.  I planted them when I moved here.

None of my iris came up.  I think the little diggers around here got to them.

as you can see some are dark purple, some are light purple and then some, which you can't see yet, are sort of salmon colored.

when I a have thick border of daffodils to keep the rodents away I'd like to get on that list.  Say 5 or 6 years?

The rodents didn't get them all



And there are more in bud.

I'm thinking I was entitled to buy the plants for the basket since the basket is an architectual elements and that falls within my stated goal of working on landscaping structures this year.  Yeah right lol.



Here is the lantana and the creeping jenny.  Is the creeping jenny a perennial by any chance?

I found this info:

Moneywort or Golden Creeping Jenny is a low growing mat forming perennial that flowers in late spring to early summer.

Thanks Jessica.  That's great.  That means this fall I can transplant it into the flower bed and I'll have another ground cover to fill in and choke out the weeds.  Woohoo lol.

Just make sure you plant it where it can creep without being a problem.  It was planted before we moved in 10 years ago and I pull it up every year.  It will take over my entire yard if I don't keep it in check.
