Dear All, We have retired the topic of the week. Or at least I got tired of being in charge and no one else volunteered. Kathy's post suggests a really interesting topic we might want to discuss like we used to and that is which bulbs don't get mushed and destroyed by the elements. Kathy has nominated two Anemones that are doing well. Would anyone else be willing to share which genera and species can tolerate wind, snow, hail, rain? If enough people respond, I'll add a link to the topic of the week wiki page. Mary Sue
