You need about 3 x's 6 lol. Would you believe that I just now got the other 250 grape hyacinths planted....I forgot about them, until I ran into them..lol
Naughty Nick
Charleen, we do have city water..been wanting to set up rainbarrels, but just haven't got around to it..
Dee
Dee, get a five gallon bucket and set it under the eaves somewhere and catch enough water for your plants. they will love you for it.
I still have tadpoles in one of my buckets, I know they are going to freeze, poor little things.
Charleen
Great idea Charleen. I know plants love rainwater!
Dee
Did you get some orchids too?
Dee
only the ones I got from Lowes.
Do you have any gingers? One of the Dave's girls,
like you, sent them to me. I can't believe howmany friends I have made since I came here.
They are so generous with their plants. I have never grown Gingers and i know they will be Beautiful and I will have to take pics for everyone to see. Got a Peach nod Brug too. LOve my Dave's girls.I just put it in my Galv. bucket. Gave me 3 BIG pieces too.
I'm going to have them down at the edge of the woods growing out if I keep this up. What Treasures I have received!!
Charleen
Charleen, I got your cutting today, and they look great. ...Thank you...Thank you..Thank you!
Dee
Charleen, my mom always said "it all comes back to you" And, she was right.You are a good person, Charleen, and we all love ya!
I think I grew a ginger one time, but I just have tooo much to bring in the winter.Are they hardy for you?
Dee
Honey, I hope they make it!! They look so small after what you all send me.
If they don't I know where to go get more, that is for sure. you are very welcome,
We are soblessed, aren't we??
Charleen
They may be, I'm going to put them in a pot for now, then next Spring ut them out and see what happens. Some of the girls say they may make it. I hope so. I would really like a blue one.
Have you seen the thread Plz Help. That girl crossed her brug with a Hibiscus.
How unusal..She has some kind of growth on it now. You will have to check it out.
Strange.
Charleen
They are big enough, tho..Remember, ken says he cuts the ones he starts short, and the trays he showed looked great! The ones I sent are all different sizes, cause they came from all different people..lol
Dee
Yes, I saw that..It is strange looking..I think she should listen to the advice of the pros tho.
Dee
Yes,me too. If there was any good, I might try to save it
but I'd toss it. Gordon even said to get rid of it. So I sure would.
I still don't know if he ever got my e-mail. Bless his heart.
Charleen
I think peach is gonna be my favorite color brug, and I have had a few people include a NOID, with their swaps, but no matter how many we get, we just gotta grow them out, cause they could be the prettiest brug that we own. In fact I think I included a couple noid's in your box..
He is probably pretty busy right now, getting them babies situated before the snow flies..
Dee
it's o.k. I'll get them to grow if they make it, great.
May be Jan. before it flies here.
No. I don't have city water. Ot would be o.k. but at least we
don't have a water bill. We do have trash it is on another bill.
Got to put clothes in dryer and get me something to eat. be back in awhile.
Charleen
