Slow going but a real performer. I has filled in and been a nice deep color. Alas, I just stepped out and the first fr*** struck last night!!! The coleus is no more. I'm bringing in roots......

Aaarggh! :-) I did not expect it at all. Bits of wilt around..............I haven't gone out again. It is early. I'll wait for the warm sunny afternoon we're getting and look when survivers as perked up. :-(

Hmm, hellebore. I was not prepared to go into frosts. I keep going out and find another something, like iceball impatient. :-(. Awww, the tragedy. Beauty is brief this time of year here.

Thanks for supporting. :-) There's damage and there's things that came through fine. This is just the beginning. I'm hoping for many cool weeks.

Sorry to hear that, Greenthumb - what a shame... Don't know how much of our garden will survive Hurricane Bill this weekend... as long as WE do, I'll be happy.
