a hello thread

smiley thats my fence and thats my clematis but mines not smiling

Trina. I can send you sibs when you are ready. I have Ceasars Brother which has morphed into a bunch of "pretty blue NOID" irises.

if my house exploded right now there would be green stuff everywhere!

cool moon I'd love that....other than the "gift" (or i'm beginning to think curse) plants, I wont have any trades ready until spring

Trina, I am not heavy into trades, If i have an abundance of something and someone wants it....welcome to it.

not unusual Moon. Ceasars Brother is one of those irises that's so popular, unless you buy it from an iris specialist, chances are it's not really Ceasar's brother. that happens to the most popular irises. if you buy an iris in wallyworld, homedepot or other big box store, chances are over 80% it's not the right iris. read my thread on the iris forum about "when asking for an iris ID".

I do know this started out as CB, but has been percolating out there for the last 6 or 7 years, so will not offer it as CB, but rather offsets from CB as NOIDS

Then Moon I would love some...JJ thinks I'm kidding .... I'm not...I hope she has room!

BRB gotta take the kids to Skateland for an all night skate deal!

I don't care what they're called you should no that by now Moon!...lol

bonjon sometimes I go days without cooking we call those fend for yourself days. Can't complain bout this one. Never tells me No and I could walk outside right now and say I wanted to go to Moons and he would say have a good time see ya when ya get back. Most he might say is if you got the money cause I gave ya all mine. LOL

trina I meant the seeds skimper has. Have you not been payng attention, everyone know I can't grow seeds. LOL

Well I'm oughta here for awhile, need to get the cleaner out of the pool.
Nice night everyone

Hi all, I'm Jim. I am the old man of the bunch. I just stick around to agravate the girls. Someone has to keep them under control or they get rowdy. I don't like dogs, they dig. Can't stand cats, they rub up against you and make tracks on the car. Don't know anything about the names of flowers. I like anything that blooms and comes back, except morning glories, trumpet vines and purslane. Had to hoe to much of that out of cotton when I was a kid. I am a fanatic about my yard. Love raised bed gardening. Like to eat anything not good for me. Peanut butter goes with anything. I have a pot belly and extremely pretty legs. I like to spin a good story every once and a while. I am solomn and sad, full of life and a lot of fun. My mind is 38 years younger than my body. That's Jim41. The 41 is my model number.

Where ya been hiding?
I got some peanut butter ice cream that is gooood!!!

Good afternoon folks! Aloha ahiahi!

E komo mai. Welcome to all.

Here is what is at the end of a rainbow in Hawaiian Volcanoes National Park.

Wow Dave thats really something.
Look at the weed its getting ready to pop!

I still think your weed is an aster JJ

oh how rude of me Hello Jim and Dave...I've almost won my plant battle!!!!

uh-oh I think i have lost a plant to the great beyond!

see this was my brug this morning

and this is my brug now

I think I might just cry now!

Glad you guys are both out and about...thought of a half dozen things or so to say, but no where to put it that it made sense, and now I have forgotten what it was....grin
How was the park Dave?

Jim, how come Jo won't let you wear your shorts on here? Afraid some one will sweep you off your feet? Grin

no I know how Venice felt over Wilty....boohoo

Moon cat was on slug thread looking for everyone.
I posted this thread there for her not sure if she got it or not
Have you seen her?

Trina, I am so sorry your Brug has a major wilt problem. I know you did your very best you could for it.

Get it into the shade, remove about 1/3 of the largest leaves and water it well. It is a bit shocked from root loss. Give it chance to recover, but do move it out of the sun.

Wiltly was so young. But your brug was sick right in his prime.

Dave, did you take a lot of photos today?

Only saw that one post from Cat and your response JJs. she is probably playing catch up since she has been gone all week.

If she tries to read it all it will be another week.LOL

I'll try that Moon

Hi everyone. I'm Cathy and happy to meet the new names and see some I already know! :-)

Wow, like magic...hi Cat, welcome back....are ya full of sticky kisses and sweet memories?

Hi Dave, good to see you...
Hi Jim I make a mean peanut butter frosted brownie....could go for one right now but too tired from weeding & work to whip up a batch! lol

Cat! How are ya? Good to see you!

Welcome back cat.

Aster is a good guess for the Composite Family (Asteraceae). There are many Genera though.

What plants were you fighting with Trina?

Here is Hale Ma'uma'u Caldera in the distance from sub-alpine Mauna Loa.

Hi Cat, how's my favorite kitten. You are the only Cat I like.

Ahhh! Beautiful landscape Dave.

I'm good. Dreading going back to work Tuesday! I need to figure out how to be a lady of leisure and never do anything except what I WANT to do! :-) NOT gonna happen! Especially since I don't play the lottery.

We've had rain here the last 2 days. Nice for the plants. I am still waiting for my first brug bloom this year. Got a late start!

evening all. just popping in real quick. need to get shower then dinner then time with hubby. glad thread is working and everything.

nice to meet everyone. Trina yes keep it watered and out the sun and baby it. it will per back up.

Hi Jim I'm the other old man of the bunch, pot belly and all. Like dogs and morning glories, neutral cats,
trumpet vine just love other peoples! Peanut butter, used to love it as a kid until Mom started to give it in my
sandwiches for school every day, can't stand it now! Keep the girls in check right on man!
How about a photo of them pretty legs then. ^_^
