It maybe a day late, but some more great pics from Gail.

I also had a couple I thought I would share. I’m including an Itoh peony since our speaker at the last meeting discussed their development. This one is Kopper Kettle and is very fragment. Also, you will see a couple of Hellebores that I have in my garden. They were also some of the Bonus Plants she spoke about. Then just a few others I thought were interesting for fall.

Have been watching my favorite weather link – http://www.wunderground.com.
> Rain is predicted Saturday starting starting around 8am with greatest risk around 2pm but
> hopefully it will be spotty and the tour can go on. Realizing that
> many times it will be raining in Monroe, or raining at Norma’s house and not mine
> the following will be procedure for decision making.

I will talk to Norma about 8:15am to see what the weather prediction looks like,
>how wide spread, and what direction it is heading, then will contact Jennie
>to send an email to all members at 8:30am for a “go” or “no go”decision.

Thanks, Norma and Naida

PS – The tour will start at Norma’s home at 10 then head south to my home.
