Elizabeth
Bon Bon Blooming in the Greenhouse today
It blew and rained all day here today. Really brought the leaves down. I will be glad when the big maple out back is bare..lol
Dee
I know that makes three of us.
Think I may go to bed early, this cold damp weather is not good for
my old bones. So think I'm calling it a night. Til tomarrow , girls.
Good night.
Charleen
Dee
I have to wait on paydays too, it's torture, I used to make some extra money mowing but not now
Elizabeth
the way it has been raining, there should be a lot of leaves coming down. had a big tree topple over last week up the road. Had to turn around and go out the back road. they had it cleared when we got back from town.
Charleen
Charlene
have a great nights sleep, talk to you tommorrow
Elizabeth
Night Charleen.
Dee
I used to make extra money when I went to work selling aprons and jewelry.
I'm not going to have DH going in and peddling stuff. He is a supervisor.
That would be, not very good. I don't think.
Charleen
Goodnight Ladies.
I am thinking about having a plant sale in the Spring, when we have the town wide yard sale. I'm thinking about it...not sure yet..I would need to set up another light and grow a bunch of seedlings.
Dee
Dee
are you setting it up in your house or the basement? I have plant sales from Mothers day all through, summer but I live on a very busy st. route, it's nothing to 100 cars go by in about half an hour, so I just put out my sign, this year wasn't as good as last year, but I know next season will be better, because I have a lot more to sell
Elizabeth
Charleen, your package arrived today. The cuttings look very healty. Nothing wrong with them. I'll cut of one end and put it in the soil today. I think I am going to put your cuttings inside so they will root better. I haven't installed my heated mat yet.
Elizabeth, I am going to do that next year too. I have lots of flowers in my flowerpicking garden. Too much for me and my family. So I am going to sell the rest. We also sell cherries. We have lots of them.
And then I am going to buy more plants for the garden! haha.
Elizabeth I was thinking more like,just for the two days of the yard sales, and just setting up in the front yard.Nothing huge..lol
Jori, I'm so glad to hear that you got the cuttings. Now it's my turn to send some...lol...I will d-mail you for your address.
Dee
Elizabeth, I may have to start doing that. Maybe I can sell some plants. You think?
It would be nice to get some extra money. Jori, I am so glad you got the plants.
May have to send more items in larger pkg. seems you get them faster.
that way I will not have to Toss the babies out that are still blooming.
That's a relief.
Charleen
Dee, I can send it to you.
Charleen
Thanks, Charleen, but she has already sent it, but you can tell me the procedure to mail to her, if you would. What is the paperwork that Elizabeth was talking about?
Dee
so, how long did it take for her to get your package?
Dee
I mailed the last pkg. on 10/20/09
and today is 28, so it took eight days. That was very good time.
The larger pkg. took less time than the smaller one. Isn't that strange
When you take your pakg. to the post offfice, they will have you fill out a form telling them what you have in the pkg. It is not a problem,On the last one I listed "Angel trumpets". I guess you could put "plants" You have to list your address , Jori's address and sign and date it. That is all there is to it.
Charleen
Sounds easy enough. I am so glad that the plants didn't get confiscated.That was my only concern about sending her cuttings.YIPPEE
Dee
You can do it, if I can muddle thru it , so can you. ^_^
Charleen
I need to get off of here and get busy. I kinda have the blahs, today. I am waiting on 3 trades that are long overdue.I'm worried that our weather will turn bad, and they will be mush, when they get here.Just need to get my mind on other things as I know they are great and reliable traders.
Dee
I think plants is a too wide descreption. Just put on it Angel trumpets as Charleen dit and I'll think it wil be fine. Here they are not so difficult I believe. When we send something I don't think I have to put anything on the envelope. But maybe I'll have to too for your country. Otherwhise they might open the package.
You are right, Angel trumpets got it right to you, didn't it?? We are going to send lot of Angel's in the mail
to you Jori.
Charleen
Good afternoon Ladies
it's good to see you, I will be mailing your plants out Monday Jori
that's a very good idea about selling your excess plants, it does give you extra money, my busy time is at the beginning
of spring, I have repeat customers, I am the only one in the area that has Brugs, so that helps
Elizabeth
lol
Elizabeth
Make $$!! lol! That's the way to do it, especially if you're the only one in your area!
Mike
Hi Jori
I am glad you joined us
Elizabeth
Mike
which one is that, it's a pretty one, you sure have some nice ones
Elizabeth
You know I was thinking about brugs, too, but I think everyone needs to see how beautiful they are first.Maybe the year after next..lol...No one has them around here either.
Yeah, which one is that Mike? Very pretty.
Dee

Elizabeth
Mike

Elizabeth

Elizabeth. I love that Peach. Mike it is Gorgeous.

Charley and I are enjoying ourselves. It is hard work moving rocks. But we dunit....
Charleen
Charlene
good afternoon, I had to rake leaves, I am glad you're have a beautiful
day, moving rocks is hard work, but worth it, I would love to see your fountain, congratulattions, that's the right price
Elizabeth
You know I went back out and took
pics, cause I knew you or Dee would want to
see them. It is going to be so pretty out there
next Spring. Enjoy,
Charleen
Charlene
that is a pretty fountain, yes it will be georgeous, with all the flowers blooming
Elizabeth
That is the Middle Garden and from all these plants under this desk there will be some Brugs in it too.
Here is the other pic. See my Azaleas blooming and That daggum tall Lantana. It outdoes itself so
bad It has stuff covered and you can't even see my Rabbit under there. It is not a small rabbit either.
But the butterflies love it.
Charleen
Charlene
that's a pretty view, I love Azaleas, I had a pretty one that bit the dust, last year, I guess the soil wasn't right for it, I have another one it just blooms in the spring, I really like yours
Elizabeth
We got that azalea before they were advertizing all these "Encore" Azaleas. It is one we can enjoy twice a year. I'm sure it has a name but I sure don't remember it. But thank you. My DH loves them too.
