I still have to pot up my EE pups and in-ground Caladiums, The parent EE's will be left out under heavy straw mulch. Then I have to start cutting , wrapping and mulching my basjoos, ,musella and sikkim, my palms, gingers, and this doesn't even account for pulling the non-hardy plants from the pond and setting up my tanks in the basement. Then I have to do the fall pond cleanup (empty dead leaves, vacuum pond, trim and drop hardy plants to bottom of pond, etc.). I will be using my entire living room, 2 bedrooms, and part of my dining room. I hate this time of year.And we say gardeners aren't crazy.
