They did not do too well last year, and usually I can leave them in the ground here in the south without any problems. This winter though has been very cold and wet so they might not have made it. <br />I had to replace my old sofa a couple of years ago. Hubby did not understand why even though I had it for 15 years. My daughter has it now. He would call it the couch monster since you could always fall asleep on it!!*Ulrike*https://www.blogger.com/profile/15640965012612927392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-57694199832826552832010-01-30T14:16:34.340+00:002010-01-30T14:16:34.340+00:00Those flowers are lovely Barbara, and I love your ...Those flowers are lovely Barbara, and I love your cat.
