<p>Had plants given to me and it took a hard, hot, working weekend for me. Oh, I'm not finished.. Plants recieved: Monkey Grass, Mexican petunia, elephant ears varigated, gaint elephant ears, spider lily plant, Yellow Iris and seeds from Touch me Nots.</p>
<p>I planted the monkey grass by spacing them around so that I would use them to help with heavy rains and the dirt would not flow away. In the past I had tried to plant grass seeds and also grass pads that where suppose to take the shady areas. I know by experience that the monkey grass will work.</p>
<p>The Mexican petunias, I put in a pot. I want to have control of the plant, not the plant to boss me.</p>
<p>Elephant ears I put in the ground. I have watered them but today they look droopy. Did some reading and found that this time of year, being real hot, would stress the plant out. Also I should have put mulch around to hold the moisture.</p>
<p>My Spider Lily plant and Yelow Iris plants look okay... Done nothing to my Touch me not seeds.</p>
<p>Been around looking at my yard and saw some limping plants and went ahead and took off some of the plant to relieve the plant.</p>
<p>I need to mow my grass...</p>
<p>Will gardening ever leave me alone?</p>
