Fall is sticky pot season

 

    In the last few days, I've been finding some great sticky pots

Green Envy cone flower
Toad lily
A pale blue Siberian iris
A "ragged leaf" veronica

Oh Cheryl I know what you mean.  I went yesterday to buy a couple of
plants for the raffle at the first Fall Garden Club meeting. And here
is
what I found sticking to me.

Begonia sutherlandii
Fuchsia Gartenmeister
a six pack of Snapdragons
Sidalcea  Party Girl
4 Mums of assorted colors!
Oh and for the raffle:  a begonia and a white mum.

What fun!!!

I suspect more pots will stick to me today as I go out with a gardening
friend (and stitching friend too).
 I've had Party Girl a few times, doesn't like my yard much.

And as a side note - no pots came home yesterday, but I suspect more will
shortly. I didn't think to record the names, but a "fleece flower" in ruby
red and an interesting "sunflower" with dark yellow flowers and a red
stems/leaves really caught my eye. Hopefully, they'll be there on Monday.
(it's the weekend and that means hockey,  hockey, hockey all the time!)

Yes I know. She doesn't stick around here for long either. She gets
partied
out, and off she goes.  But I do like those little pink "hollyhock"
flowers.
The snaps are the same pink, and a deeper rose pink, and yellow. I
will
add some pansies/violas tomorrow.  (but will I come out with only
those,
or will more sticky pots follow?  Who knows!)

Fleece flower? Is that Persicaria?  red ones sound pretty. They can
get
to be a little invasive here.  Sunflowers are always great. Hope they
are
waiting there on Monday for you.  Have fun with Hockey

we may get a little rain this weekend  (??)
