No worry...the segment was only from yesterday, so it was practically new! The shift to FL is a hard one; many people tell me that. You really need to leave old thoughts behind, or at least shift them by a season or even half a year (so pansies are a winter crop there, I think, and not springlike up north). Some of the plants are the same, but the timing is not. Not sure which of <a href="http://www.desert-tropicals.com/Bookstore/booklist.html" rel="nofollow">these books</a> are still in print, but maybe think about getting one or two as a start...or the<a href="http://www.sunset.com/sunset/bookstore/article/0,21684,1149294,00.html" rel="nofollow"> Sunset Florida book</a> (or their national garden guide).

I saw you on Martha Stewart today. It was a re-run but I loved it! I had not seen it before. I am kinda lost now when it comes to gardening. I used to be good and I loved it but then we moved to SW Florida 2 years ago and I have no idea what to do I am a New Englander and I am so out of my element here in FL. We are considered the Sub Tropical zone (10) and I really miss my New England perrenials. Anyway. Glad I could stop be here! HI! I saw you on Martha Stewart today. It was a re-run but I loved it!
