Antique stores with gardening stuff and yesterday I received my mum cuttings to cultivate

Some victorian looking wire baskets, and garden trellises..

..so given to imagination..

3 for 79.00

and yesterday I received my 11 mum cuttings form Kings Mums in Oregon City

I planted them in 5" pots and put them in the greenhouse.

So now I'm thinking ahead to fall.

I may buy some more, some cascading mums, perhaps, so many to choose form.

I can't decide, go figure!

by David DeGraw / February 24th, 2010

The conflicting propaganda of opposing parties is essentially what leads to political abstention. But this is not the abstention of the free spirit which asserts itself; it is the result of resignation, the external symptom of a series of inhibitions. Such a man has not decided to abstain; under diverse pressures, subjected to shocks and distortions, he can no longer (even if he wanted to) perform a political act. What is even more serious is that this inhibition not only is political, but also progressively takes over the whole of his being and leads to a general attitude of surrender.
