Need less plants. In my defense, I have a couple of trees I did not plant this year due to the extreme heat and drought…Also, I propagated some plants and now have to overwinter them.

…but the good news is they are now all tucked in. In the winter we turn our screened in porch into a greenhouse by putting up 6 mil plastic. Every year we learn a little more about how to secure it. LOL. The first year we used a thousand staples and it did not work well. The plastic pulled away because of high winds and it took a looong time to remove all of the staples the following spring.

Now we use a combination of wires and staples. Getting better…but have some ideas for next year…
