        Bamboo is for the planters in the front.
        The cordy and the bulbs are for the back.

        And yes, I need help, :chicken: :heehee: :wub2:

        Remember though, I was starting from scratch, front and back so I NEED these :roflol: :pathd:

        I'm sure you'll find room but don't forget to leave room for a couple of Callistemons, they probably won't be stocked untill March.:smile:
        I bought a couple of bargains at Wyevale as ALL shrubs were half price.
        Phyllo Aurea and Nandina 'Seika' plus a h/p Phalenopsis.
