Beautiful color Dave. I just love DLs and remember the collection I had at the other farm I owned. They were beautiful but I left them there and the new owners, who are now gone due to economy, the place is empty and owned by the bank, just left the flowers die. Nothing makes me more angry when you sell a place and then watch it go down the tube. So upsetting to me.

If I were not a certified nursery I could send plants anywhere but again, the inspectors on the other end could open them and then they would be history. California laws are the worst regarding incoming plants, I am amazed how many get thru. My luck my babies would not make it. LOL. You all will get yours and if I can sneak some soil on them I will, but it will be only enough to hopefully keep them alive.

The weather here is about to change and go back to the 90 deg. again by Monday.
Give me a break. Holy Cow. My old bod just can not handle hot, cold, wet, dry, up, down, whatever. I feel like a truck hit me most of the time when the weather changes.

I am so sorry so many of you have pains and I pray it is nothing more than the aging process with most of you. I realize there are some serious health issues here among us but we h ave each other to help us deal with them. I know I am here for anyone who wants to vent or just talk.

Most get busy. Will be back later. I sold another gardenia, now I have to find one that does not have mealy bug and trim it and then get it ready for a trip. LOL mealy bug gets on them all year round and even those that are outside. I think they are my only problem when it comes to bugs. I wish I had my ladybugs back. I have not seen a ladybug for weeks. Where are they?

Here is a picture of my Amazon parrot biting my toes. He is so bad. He ate my antherium yesterday.
He is such a bugger.
Sorry it is so dark, I took it with my cellphone because I was sitting at the computer. LOL
