harumph, well, I've been diligently covering the nasturtiums and black pansies to save them fora few more batches of jelly. Convinced that nothing could or would kill the portulaca and that there would be portulaca until the end of october for garlic butter, aahh not so. The minus three with an inch of white frost destroyed the portulaca. Now I am craving portulaca butter and since it was such a good seller and I wasn't concerned with the life span of the supply I have none for myself. hmmm.
