I just HAD to do it!

We cancelled out trip to town this month (again) so I went online today and ordered all the stuff I wanted. I appreciate the tips on websites you folks had for me. I spent HOURS trying to decide what i really wanted, which I NEVER could have done in person. Shipping ran me $45...which is $160 cheaper than it would have cost us in fuel to get to town and back! win-win! row

wellllll.... I got silver lace vines, honeysuckles, trumpet vines and some penstemon. I have several arches a huge dirt backyard and 100' of rock wall to work with! I'm looking forward to the day it all comes together!

I had them at my place in California and they were wonderful. I never had any problem with them being invasive, and here, i just hope I can get one going, since we are high desert and a few things really struggle!

That's one of the beauties of living in the arid west! Plants that are noxious and invasive elsewhere are simply hardy and well behaved out here.
