Me + Money= Exponential Plants

How has this happened? A few days ago I had only a few flats of plants to take home. Here is what I have to fit in my trunk now.






Tons of basil, thyme, sage, fennel, dill, lavender, viola, heirloom tomatoes, perennials etc... Let's not forget the drawer of bulbs in my fridge and the box of Dahlia tubers too!

Plus, today I visited the small iris farm near by. I ended up buying these and I plan on going back Monday. The irises are just getting started blooming.

Ooo, Radiant Energy is a perfect name for the yellow iris and I *love* the purple plicata.

Let's make a deal - you can send me some money and your enthusiasm and I can buy plants vicariously for you! Looks like a good haul o' plants there!

Uh oh - you might have a problem!!! ;-)

Beautiful, healthy looking plants! I get jealous when I see all of that, and then remind myself of all the seedlings down in the basement, the plants out in the coldframe hardening off, etc. Nope, definitely don't need more plants. And I hope you got a picture of your car all loaded up!

I confess to iris envy. My bad...

Did you actually get all of these packed into your trunk? It would have to be a darned spacious trunk! I'd also imagine that you didn't pack any suitcases!! ha ha!
