Thanks for the warm welcomes. Yes, my hands are full with critters. It's the price I pay for living across from a hayfield, but then the fields around me have me convinced the land can be made to grow stuff. I just wish I inherited my grandfather's green thumb. Somehow, he had the most prolific gardens in red shale. Plus fruit trees he had to brace so the branches didn't break under the weight of the fruit (all his trees looked like they were on crutches near the end of summer), and blueberries galore! Well, the blueberries were the one plant my grandmother got to claim as hers.
Good to know! I'll make sure at least one of them goes into a large pot for overwintering. I have a couple of pots that are either 8 or 10 gallon in the garage, so I'll reserve one for the kung pao.
