Hey everybody, I wanted to introduce Rich's latest addition to his menagerie of plants. This fine speciman takes the place of a tempermental snow bush which, like the girl in the poem, was completely beautiful when in the mood but could be really ugly when fickle.
He bought it and had it put in the pot (since he had little experience with potting caciti [not a bad band name, that, "potting cacti"]) and it really seems to fit the space well.
He got it at Merrifield Garden Center's latest store - which is really more of a gardening compound out in Manassas, Virginia. It was really impressive with great big greenhouses filled with beautiful plants that were all wonderfully displayed, even on a day with sheeting down rain.
