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!)
