New bees chit chat thread...Seed Junkies welcome 09/27/09

The mail people are smelling for Arejays pies. They can't find the aroma. If she don't make any, it may come back this way and I'll get it.
JLJ, you do take it easy. Get lots of rest and still drink lots of juice. Glad you are better but don't overdo while you are still weak.

Well I will just tell you all that package is here with me and it is going to stay, that is if it don't decide to grow wings and fly away. Can't let arejay get ahold of it she'll like it to much to share with us.

I just opened it, took a big sniff, smiled and sent it to Loca. LOL

See, there is 2 packages. Seray got one and Flower got one. Who is the flower fairy?

The one I got has a very unusual smell to it.

Well, I'm turning in. Good night all.

Night Mekos. I'll let you know if the weatherman is right and we do get snow. You are more than welcome to it. I really don't want it yet! Just too early for me. But, it probably won't last long. I said that last year, too, though, and it did finally disappear. In May! LOL
Have a good evening all. I only got about 4 hours of sleep last night, and spent the day with the grandbabies, so I am pooped! See you all tomorrow!

Thanks seray! I'll stalk the mailman tomorrow - ROTFLOL!

The forecast for Thursday is 90° and it looks like that temp will hold for the next week. I really really think I feel a sick day coming on . . . cough! cough!

Seriously, already told my boss I think I'm gonna take the day off and plant my fall veggies and some of the many many flower seeds I've received from all you my seedy peeps!! (((big hugs)))

Flower you got a stinky package!! Did it have stinky cheese in it? I got a package. It is from Jan. Full of really fun seeds for the newbies!! Thank You Jan....I love to get seeds I have not seen before.

Good morning everyone. Boy that package is going to smell strong by the time it gets to Maine. Good thing it was opened on the way to air it out.
Never did get my shady bed finished up. Too chilly for me to stay outside long yesterday but today is supposed to be warmer so just maybe.
I spent yesterday morning making turkey jerky for DH and the dogs got to eat the test pieces when they weren't done enough. OH BOY now the littlest one doesn't want to eat anything else. I'll have to see if I can get pictures of them so you can see how cute they are. Their mom isn't a problem to snap she just sits around most of the time but her two boys are running nuts.

I got a package Mindy and there was no smell. It was seeds from Jan . Fun seeds I might add!!

Well it wasn't stinky cheese arejay but it sure did smell.
Boy you all have more get up and go than I do. I planted 4 Mums ,transplanted about a dozen hostas and 2 little blue mist spirea bushes

I have a couple small starts of unknown hostas if anyone would like to have them. There are maybe 4 or 5 of them. They are all different or at least the leaves are different LOL. All of my tags have gotten lost so I don't know which is which now,

Robin that wasn't the package that's been traveling around the country. This one has a smell to it so if it comes to your house grab it and open it up. You'll see what I mean by a smell. It's not a bad smell though DH swore it was stinky to him.

Morning everybody! Well, the w-man was wrong again! Yippee! It is a beautiful morning out there! About 60 degrees, so I am going to try to get more done outside today.
Tubby, if you have more of the hardy hibiscus seeds, I would love some. Let me know what you need.
Flower, if you don't have anyone else that needs those hostas, I would love some of those!
What is in the stinky box? If not cheese, just what is it? LOL

Mindy does that mean you have seen this box? Just how are you involved with this box and Flower...what is in your box? Are you two in Ka Hoots with KT1 also????

Good morning everyone...Nice cool beautiful day here today...I hauled grass clippings from all over the county for LG beds yesterday....Brought my DH home about 100 naked ladies (bulbs that is) red spider surprise lilies...I planted them around the light pole in LG... My DH and DD were laughing said now they can watch naked ladies do a pole dance...See what a good wife and daughter I am....WOW I couldnt believe how many bulbs those things make...I dug one bunch must of been 40- 50 bulbs in one lil bunch...Wish I could run up on some yellow ones...

Im off today in search of a brown layer....Still have a few leaves left from last year in a pile...

Then have more bulbs to plant.... I may go back and get more surprise lily bulbs..scatter a few over the yard.. tho I dont know how I will keep hubby from mowing them down..

We'll never tell. hehe

Has any one been reading about the trade list thingy? Terrible LOL

skellogg You bet..How about a trade.I'd like to try some Indian Grass

Tubby

Now Robin why in the world would you think we are in cahoots with KT1 who hasn't even said a word about a package that I can remember. Let me think......KT1 is Cue, KT2 is Loca and KT3 is missing until she catches up on her garden stuff among other things. Only one I seen post anything about a package was Loca, Mekos, Seray, Flower and Mindy and I can't imagine a package going to all those states in just a few days. No, I haven't seen the stinky package just heard what was in it and when I told DH that's what he said......stinky. Of course my memory isn't the best when my mind's crammed full of things I need to get done before it gets much colder so you might not want to take my word for it.
Besides I haven't mailed your package to you yet. It's still on the porch waiting to be taped up and took to the PO.

Now lets not confuse Robin too much my peeps . . . You know she already has a hard time remembering things - lol...

Someone here is not telling the whole truth!! I just got a package. OMG was I surprised!! It is French yes let me tell you again....French Lavender....It is beautiful beautiful and smells heavenly. I love it , love it...Margaret you are so very thoughtful.... I don't know how you knew I was not feeling well and this made me feel better immediately of course....
Unless maybe I told you or someone and they told or maybe like KT2 says I am confused maybe...maybe not though.
But ether way.......I love French Lavender...Thank you for thinking of me.....
Robin

Yeah! The package has arrived! Looks like we have a bunch of nice little flower fairies flying around Daves doing good deeds for all the seedy peeps!

Enjoy Robin! The last lavendar I had I killed it:~(

Shhh Kelly take those words back....I wont kill my French Lavender, I wont kill my French Lavender...

You'll be alright - lol. I think I overwatered it even though it was in a pot. Maybe it was too hot for it where I had it??

You have to bring it in for the winter?

Yes, I am going to keep it in until spring....

Your house will sure smell pretty!

Got the spider lily bulbs today Mechelle. Thanks!

Hey guys my Internet Is down right now . I should have it fixed by Friday. I'm on my iPod at a wi- fi spot. Be back soon as it's fixed:)

Oh Mechelle....we will miss you....

Miss u guys too:( hopefully they'll have it fixed by Friday. But it is so gorgeous outside this week so you know where I'll be, LOL

Have fun outside!!

Hi everyone. Just checking in, I had company all morning. Hope everyone is good today. I can't believe that package got by me, Arejay. I almost got it. I have lavender, but mine is english lavender, and mexican heather.
Well, I missed the snow again, so maybe later.
Missing you Mechelle. Got to hurry back.
Thanks for the link to the cobra lily, Arejay- but hoping to find it for less than 20.00, or find seeds for it and grow one. I had looked at that place before, and they don't have seeds.
Well, glad everyone is having a good day to start out and will be back later. Got some things to do.

You are welcome Robin. I just had a feeling you weren't feeling well lately so I thought I would cheer you up. Which culivator did you get? No I don't know because I just told the guy on the phone to pick out one and send it to you he had more than one. Glad it made you feel better. Forgive me for not telling the whole truth?????
Darn now I won't be able to do that again everyone will suspect me right off the bat LOL.

Well you have long feelings Mindy and I do appreciate your thoughtfulness. THe name of my Lavender is Lavandula Dentata Linda Ligon. It is like none that I have and Lavender I have a few as I love them so much. Mindy it has a bud and it traveled very well. The leaves are different than any of mine. They are like scalloped I guess you would call them. Here is a picture ignore everything you see but the lavender the pictures of the dust are just extra...ok?
Can You see it?

Oh it is my week!! I just got a seed counter.....From Mit !!! What a great idea!! Thank You Mit.
