I ordered the greenhouse over the internet, but I can't remember where I ordered it from! It was a pain in the @#! to put together. Last year it came within a few inches of being destroyed when I had a large tree cut down. One of the branches being cut fell almost on top of it...it was like watching in slow motion just waiting for it to hit. Lukily it just missed it.
And thank you all very much for your kind comments.

Those are Rocket Snapgragons. In my zone they are usually a short-lived perennial.

I actually bought the snapgragons already in pots at Lowe's. They had yellow and red. I thought the yellow would stand out more. I still have them, too...they have overwintered quite well.

Yes, I am a Master Gardener...I usually just don't mention it unless someone asks....I'm just soooo humble. laugh
