Gail after I saw your first post of Merry Christmas I fell in love! I still haven't gotten that one as Dave Harris was out when I ordered but I did get 5 others and then Jan sent me a couple in trade and Bonnie sent me a couple in trade. These are the only ones I've gotten to bloom so far but I am waiting anxiously for more! LOL

Do you know I went on eBay and found sinningia tubers, just the tubers, not a plant, selling for 20 to 50 dollars each?? I was shocked, some of them were ones that Dave Harris was selling at $6.00 for a whole plant!! Like Ozarks Pink Popcorn, which I bought as a plant for $6.50 and then saw just a tuber of it go for 26 dollars, people are crazy not to shop around! Ok, off my rant LOL

Yep, hydrocodone for shingles, it makes them bearable!! And yes, I am so excited thinking of the possibilities of hanging plants and growing some climbing vines on the pergola! If I start some Morning Glories inside next year by the time it's warm enough to move them outside I think I can get them to climb the posts and bloom, I would love that!

This is a NOID strep that Susan sent me and I love these delicate small blooms! Thanks again Susan!!
