Mark, the last post JJ made was April 2002!
So I guess JJ is another crocosmia nut......eerrr FAN!!!!!
Yes Mark, very, very NAUGHTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've been searching and googling everywhere for them too ! Oh how I love Yellow flowers !
Janet
Yes i checked when her last post was............................. wonder if she still has the account??? I may send her a text message and tell her to check her DG!!!
JJ actually isnt all that keen on crocosmia, but i did convince her to try a few.................... i sent her about 5 different ones to try and so far she has killed only one i think!!!!
Noooooooooooooo, i am never naughty......................... ask me mum!! LOL
Why hello Mrs Treasure........................... and how are you today??????????????????????
Why does everyone love yellow ones.............??????????????
There are some spectacular ones and you all like the yellow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hmmmmmmmm
Mark
Mark, already asked you mum and she says you are very naughty! Well if you can fib so can I!
JJ is only a member, look at the home page. A subscriber would have a subscription date there.
Now be good!
My mum just brought me some sausage rolls.................... and i showed her what you wrote.............. she said she agrees with you too!!!!
She aslo agress with starlight......................LOL
Oh...................... anyway i doubt she will come back on here................!!!!!
Ok, i will be good.................
I think the reason we all are interested in the yellow is all we have ever seen or been offered here is the common orange and Lucifer. I love them all Emily McKenzie, Little Readhead, Emberglow Amberglow and I can go on and on . I do so wish I could stroll through your gardens to see all the varieties in bloom. I promise I would only snitch a few seeds. I'm sure they are overcrowded anyway. HeHe They are under used here because no one has filled that niche with reasonable prices. I see most sites want $7.95 for one corm. Yow that is high. Oh well I shall look at yours until prices decrease.
Oh miss Riverland..................................... you have D-Mail!!!!!!!
yeah you are probably right...................... USA doesnt seem to have many at all..........!!
You can come here and stroll through the garden anytime you want!!!!!
May even give you a few to take home............
$7.95 for one corm is about what some people charge here............... especially those on ebay!!!!
Hey, some of mine, the rare ones i have paid $40 for one corm........................
Violet_Treasure
and
Riverland,
If I can dig my yellow 'George Davidson' corms up today or tomorrow (if the ground and weather cooperate with the temp), I'll send you both some. I don't know how many I have, but I'll be glad to share a few with you both. Let me try to dig and I'll let you both know.
Marilyn
Marilyn your so kind ! I do love them all all clors and all plants ! Yellow is Sunny, Cheerful, Striking warm Smiley color full of cheer and hope !!
Yellow flowers go good with every color ! I love Yellow and Blue flowers growing together ! Yellow and Orange flowers or both colors together is so warm and strking ! Sunny Smiley Yellow !!
Please let me know where to send the postage :))
Hey Marilyn Bless you!!!!! I really love these plants. I'd really appreciate any that you might share. I would be glad to trade something or pay postage. I am in the address exchange or if easier I can dmail it to you Waahoo !!!! This is going to be a great Christmas. My hubby is getting me a greenhouse so I can grow some plants myself. There is a learning curve in this. We live on this great big place that is barren of plants. I have been begging for seed, starter plants , corms or rhizomes. My budget is blown for awhile for purchasing. Besides its more fun to plant something that another gardener has entrusted you with..So all you wonderful greenthumbed gardeners out there please don't throw anything away I have a spot for it.

Riverland WOW Is that your home and land . Gorgous ! Do you have pictures of any of your garden beds or is all this land new !!
We just live in a 55 plus park but blessed the yards are 60 ft. by 100 ft.
It's so much fun growing seeds, cuttings... from friends !
Mark. ... yep I did spend all that time searching the net. As it's the holiday, I thought I would try and play a Secret Santa. Course I might be able to look that part more if you'd pas s me that sausage sandwhich your Momma brought you. LOL
Riverland is right. You just can't get all the colors you have her e in the US. You need to pack up your gardens and move em all ove r here . Love the pics, but would love to se e them better in person.
How about breeding a really shocking purple one? I didn't notice on your sight anywhere, but some time s it hard to see when your drooling at the pages . Do you , have you, are ya gonna, breed em?
How about Blue ! Blue would be pretty with Yellow :))
Oh yeah.......blue and yellow...........come on Mark you can do it!!!!!
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One day i am gonna breed them, yes.................... but i doubt i will ever get a blue one!!!!
The thing to have would be a white one.......................
Ok, I will come to yours Ella, and bring my whole garden with me.................!!!! LOL
Demi............................. OK, i will try, just for you!!!!!! Maybe even a Black one for you!!
OHHHH...Yes I love black!!!!!!!!!don't you???????
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM My favourite colour!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Goodie...does that mean your gonna try??????
Oh yes................................
Violet treasure yes that is my home and land. All of my beds are new this year so not worth any pictures yet. Hopefully someday soon I will have pretty gardens. It just takes great amounts to make a dent when the area is large. This used to be a rock unloading site for an asphalt plant. It was completely barren. We have spent most of our time and budget planting trees and grass. That was high priority to stop erosion. Now I am trying to add some color and softer lines to the landscaping.
WOW So much fun ! I'll be looking forward to seeing up dated pictures ! We love growing by seed :))
Is tryign to get a blue one, like thos e of us still workign on trying to get that $64,000 blue daylily?? : )
White shouldn't be hard to do. Just alot of outcrossing and back crossing and years of patience waiting for them to grow up and bloom. Black... think that woudl be the challenge, but then you could name it after you... " Gardening Devil" " Friendly Devil... " LOL
JJ did return to Dave's and was quite surprised that Mark had been having a bit of fun with old postings. Will anyone tell my why?
Mark likes a bit of mischief... he's harmless, though ;)
~Gina
Thank you Gina...........................LOL
Yes Mark is a little mischief maker..................!!!!
