Fall 2009 AV&G Round Robin - The Journey Begins!!!

Oh, but Jim . . . you will be contacted by others, asking what YOU want!

Leaving for cub scouts here in 20 minutes. Will check the apartment office to see if the mailman has been by yet!

Duh, it's called a telephone! I called the office, and there is a box! Putting on my shoes right now!

Jim has already been asked what he wants! LOL I got with him this morning, as I've got a lot of plants I want to get traded off before cold weather hits. They're duplicates and I need variety to get me through the winter! I didn't want to trade away anything he might want, though, so we talked a bit and now I'm making a tray of stuff just for Jim, and the rest is going on a tradelist, so keep your eyes open for that, any who are interested in trading! ;o)

Must . . . show . . . restraint . . . must . . . wait . . . until . . . kids . . . are . . . in . . . bed . . .

OH there is NO WAY you're gonna be able to wait that long, Nichole!!! At least cut the tape and peek in!! ^_^ LOL

I hope your kids are extra sleepy tonight (LOL) so you can tell us what you got and are keeping!!!!!

I hate to be the one who can't provide much in the way of what others are looking for...I only have a limited number of things to add and will add what I have. I hope someone wants it!

Everybody was just starting out once, anna! Just add what you can, and it will all be fine! I think you'll love what all you see in the box. There's no telling what all will be in there, but looking at who's getting the box before you tells me there will be some GREAT stuff in there!

Anna........I am just talking big as I will never get around to asking what the next person wants (LOL). When the box gets to me, I will just put whatever I have just like you...........

Oh Raingazer, I am not worried about me not finding anything I like! When you're starting out almost anything is nice even if you have a wish list.

(oh, my aching feet!)

I was in the kitchen, walking back and forth between the box an laptop for the past 2 hours!

Here is what I kept:

1 - Naturly Nawlins AV plantlet
2 - Silverglade Muffs AV leaves
2 - Gower Singleton strep leaf cuts
3 - Andromeda - sm. strep leaves
2 - Black Gardenia strep cuts
2 - Fancy Pants strep cuts
2 - Franken Magpie strep cuts
2 - Rebel's Cranberry Creme leaves
1 - Orange Julep strep leaf
1 - Sheer Romance AV cutting
1 - Spin Art strep leaf
2 - Cherry Pie strep cuts
2 - Sora Zachary AV leaves
1 - Chorus Line strep leaf
1 - Orion strep leaf
3 - Beca's Pink Crochet AV leaves
2 - Rose Blush strep cuts
1 - Kagero(?) strep cut

2 - Two Miss w Jeannie AV leaves
1 - Snow Wasp AV plantlet
2 - Neptune's Jewel AV plantlets

3 - something labeled var. Devils Backbone cuttings
and finally . . .

2 - sinn. aggreante(?) yellow. These look a bit wilty. I cut a but off the bottom and have them sitting in water. If they perk up a bit overnight, I will put one back in the box . . .

This looks like alot, but what I kept . . . is maybe 15% of what was in the box!!!

I will pack it up again in the morning, and get it to the post office!

I like them all!!! tee hee!!!

Oh those are all nice Nichole!!!
Variegated Devil's backbone....is that a non-gessie?

You did need a forklift for the size of that box!!! Wonderful, Nichole!! Start planting!!! How generous of Bigoldbuck!!

Wow!

lol

Oh that is so wonderful, Nichole! I'm so tickled for you! And what a great job you did, Jim! This is so exciting! ^_^

***please see additional bold section in top thread***

The box is once again in the hands of the USPS!!!

I know I'm new and I may be asking a lot, but I'd love to get something with a green or partially green bloom. I saw Ma's Fat Frog on a website and it was so beautiful. I don't have a lot to share right now, but I did order some things that are just beautiful. I am excited to share them when my time comes. love, julie

You are going to have a lot of fun for the next few months Nicole , so glad Jim gave you some wonderful things you like , he is one of the Gems of the forum :) have fun Nicole :)


Connie

I finished potting things up this afternoon. I am a tad tired! ^_^

Nichole, did the sinns perk up after sitting in water?

They did perk up a little, but not enough to put them back in the box. I'm going to try and root them. Maybe some time in a dome will do them good. ^_^

they have a pretty bloom

Oh my what a lot of beautiful things you took so I can only imagine how much was in there. I am sure you added many beautiful things in their place too.

I don't need anymore, but ohhhhh I just can't wait! Got some goodies to add to the box as well.

Laura H

Isn't it fun to get a box of anything!! I even love getting supplies like pots, etc......

@ Gail- and bulbs. LOL :)

I know!!! I get so excited, feel like a kid, or its my birthday or christmas!!!

I had forgotten about my bulbs coming.......................oh my goodness................should I go to town to the post office yet........oh, I have lost my memory...........thanks, HappyGrow!!!

Laura you come after me either directly or second if I remember correctly. Is there anything you want specifically?

Froggie's girl I am so sorry that I am not in front of you because I actually have something green! Oh well. I hope you get it. Because I don't have too much to put in if I see as many things I want as I have to give, someone will get that green one.

Oh, AnnaCanna, that is so sweet just to offer! I'm sure I will find something I like in the box (probably all of it!). But like you, I will have to use restraint when taking things because I don't have as much to offer since I'm a newbie! I can always get a Ma's Fat Froggie later and share that in the future.

love to all, julie

I picked up the box!

Jannich those all sound lovely. Naturly Nawlins is on my list I think so if in the future you have a leaf from it I would love one.

OK I have a questions. If I only have AV leaves to put in and I get crazy and decide to pick out a strep leaf do is that OK? I guess I am asking if I have to put in the same type of leaf I take.
