Free plants!




I responded to an ad on Craigslist for some free plants (with a 'you dig' clause.) So on the hottest day of the spring so far, I took the kids over to the home of some very nice Homewood woman who had, as she put it, a lot of green stuff she wanted gone. All she wanted to keep were the hostas.
Iris? Very nice! Lily of the valley? I was just going to go over to a neighbor's and ask if I could take some! Tiger Lillies? Sure... never had them before, but the worst that happens is that they die, and the second worst is that I hate them and have to give them away to someone else, starting and endless Craigslist daisy chain of unloved and unlovable lillies. I also dug up a few ferns, and we'll see how they do.
