There's an adorable chair that's similar, too. It's only $999. LOL.<BR/><BR/><B>Lisa ~ </B>That picture doesn't do it justice. And someone here said the same thing, that one might be able to be made from wood. I don't know, though, because it's so detailed!<BR/><BR/><B>Gina ~ </B>Those plants were for the Master Gardener's plant sale and for the Children's Garden, which made it doubly bad had more of them been crushed beyond reviving.<BR/><BR/><B>Benjamin ~ </B>Scary isn't the word for it. We both got sick at our stomach at the thought of what we might find back there.<BR/>Yes, you must visit A Proper Garden. It's a special place!<BR/><BR/><B>Yolanda Elizabet ~ </B>I KNEW you would love it! I think we both need one, don't you?<BR/><BR/><B>Ki ~ </B>I hadn't heard that about Lewisias. I know they don't like to be wet and that it's best to plant them in gravelly soil, which I did. I'm not sure what the hardiness zone is either. Some sites say 6, some say 5, and I've even seen one that said 3! I think Kate in Canada has one, so maybe the 3 is closer to correct. But anyway, since I wrote that post, I found them at Meijer and I bought three more! They were large and they were cheap. I just HAD to.<BR/>Thanks for the info on them. I didn't know some of that! :-)<BR/><BR/><B>Kim ~ </B>You've got a deal! I think I'd better bring a towel along to catch my drool...Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-19134809884032296912008-04-29T21:50:00.000-04:002008-04-29T21:50:00.000-04:00Psst...next time you come up and visit, we can go ...Psst...next time you come up and visit, we can go to his studio.

I mean a dried specimen of L. rediviva survived 5 years in some museum's collection and started to bloom after all that time! They are Portulacaceae after all and you know how hard those are to get rid of :)<BR/><BR/>However, just like yours, mine is not doing so great. The leaves have diminished in quantity and it look puny compared to when I first bought it. I think I planted it in too wet a spot despite my preparing the site well by adding sand and gravel. I moved it to a very dry spot under the overhang of the roof last month and it seems to like the dry conditions much better. Like its name it seems to be reviving. Actually I have a different variety but I did buy some L. rediviva seeds so I hope they grow like portulacas.Kihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05576859749293959381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-26883566992375028562008-04-29T16:01:00.000-04:002008-04-29T16:01:00.000-04:00Mi-aowwwww, let me at it!!!!

Anyway, I'm heading back to Columbus next month so maybe I can get my way up to A Proper Garden--it looks great. I'm glad the plants in the minivan weren't totaled--that's scary.
