Avedon: If your interested in CAPACITY FOR WONDER, I have two clumps of it and would like to eliminate one. It would be about 5 to 6 fans. I just ask that you pay the postage for shipping and it won't ship till late August or early September. Registration Info:36",Tet,6",SEv,ML and that is very accurate as to how it performs here. With your zone, it may start earlier in the season for you. I just finished photos from early this afternoon and here is a pic of the one I would be eliminating. You might want to find out if any folks in your zone/region grow it and how it does. You can click on my name and send me an email via GW if your interested. Julia

Ingrid, Rozanne is great here but the blue in the photo is "Bonny Blue" aster. This wood fence area is cooler and plants seem to do fine on both East and West facing sides so far. I do have a hebe facing East that looks terrible. That maybe should have been in shade here. I have a couple in shady spots doing well. It will be interesting to see what happens over the years with the Teas in different areas here. I think you'd like this aster which is very charming and tidy. Rozanne gets huge here, and I really love it. I have some in this fence garden that should be more obvious as time goes by. Yes, the drip irrigation is needed on almost everything.

Good point on the sensor. The good thing is that the google nest sensor is not expensive, but I also noticed your point. Might as well lower the whole system and there is no need for a sensor. Sensor would just guarantee that specific area 100% reaches that temperature. That's the whole reason the $billion$ gadget market exists... hey it's cheap what do you have to lose? Buy another gadget *it's cheap what do you have to lose* and so on... until you have house filled with gadgets that don't do much if anything. In my book of definitions a solution means to fix the problem without creating new problems. People get a joy from the house of free stuff (or practically free). Look around, LOL. The supreme court recently made a ruling on free college stuff. How dare you, you promised? ----- back to the show ---- Sensor guarantee: One sensor reads 74, system turns on because this sensor is set to 70. Bedroom 2 drops to 66F to drop the temp 4 degrees the sensor in the MB suite is trying to reach. Living room area drops to 66 where the thermostat is / Kitchen and elsewhere same difference. Bedroom 2 occupants claim it's now too cold. Put a sensor in that room to raise temp to 70-71 but to cool the MB suite lower the two sensors that guaranteed the cooling are now in opposition to one another. Which sensor wins? The thermostat? oops no guarantee with that outcome. If Bedroom 2 occupants don't care sure the sensor gadget may help... but not any difference from just lowering the temp at the thermostat. The end result isn't much difference other than your HVAC system is much more simple to operate if you just deny the gadget makers another gadget. For some the "oh it's so cheap" is too big of a hurdle to over come. It's your money you can burn it any way you want. It's not likely I convince you otherwise. The billion dollar gadget market is in no way shape or form going to collapse from anything I say now or later. What I see as your primary issue has more to do with elevated humidity than temp alone. Ignoring that isn't a good idea. I service the Katy, Texas area.
