    Donna,

    We are moving soon and will be digging up our lilacs and taking them with us. When we do, I will post it.

    I don't know the specific type you are looking for but the ones we have are very fragrant and hardy.

    Those are pretty but huge !! Can they be pruned to keep them smaller !! I have see the white hibiscus that grow wild in Louisiana but not the ones like yours !!

    Mart... I originally got the seeds from my aunt's plant. Her's is about one-third the size of this one.
    I cut this one back almost to the ground right after the last freeze. And it grows right back to this height in no time.

    Hi Donna, I was reading up on transplanting horseradish, and they suggest March as the best time to transplant this. Remind me in in early March, and if you can advise me how best to send the root, will do so at that time. I do not seem to have a really hot type of horseradish, but that may just because I am still experimenting with how to process it other than just grating some on my meat.
