I will post 1-2 random choices from the plant list daily on this thread. Posts may be made at any time . . . I will also occasionally post a “bonus” pick.
The first person to cross off ALL the plants they have chosen should post “BINGO” in this thread. If more than 1 person posts bingo, the one with the earliest posted time will be the first winner. Once carpanthiangirl verifies the bingo, the winner will choose a number (1-3) and will then receive the corresponding prize directly from the donor.

Oh wow!!!! Stop it you guys! My new space is so limited!, she said gasping for air....
and there are 73 calls left . . . . hehehe . . . start breaking out the temporary shelving units . . .
Ohh wow !!! That Seren sure is beautiful !!! I'm sticking to violets for now...
Hey, now there's a strep I haven't killed yet! lol
Good morning everyone! Just "lurking" about the garden today and thought I'd pop in to say hello. That first call AV 'Tiny Dancer' is adorable. WOW WOW WOW ... I'm in love with Strep 'Seren', it is absolutely gorgeous! I sure wish I had the knack and could grow Strep's, I'd have that one for sure. I can just picture a large container planted up with four or five of that beauty!
I just googled for more pic's of 'Seren': http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&q=Images+of+Streptocarpus+Seren&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=univ&ei=1-VbTaH2FoOjtgeRo4yADA&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CCsQsAQwAA&biw=1280&bih=726 and notice that some have more yellow in the flower than others. I wonder how you make it have more of the yellow coloring? They are all beautiful but I really like the ones with lots of yellow!
Beautiful pic's of Strep Seren in PF too, not as much yellow in the flowers but so pretty! http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/171485/
I'm not sure about the color variance.I think cool temps. are a factor.
No call for today??
So sorry, everyone! I just lost track of time yesterday! Here are a few calls for today, to make up for it!
61 Strep: Franken Dainty Lady
12 AV: Midget Gumdrop
22 AV: Rob's Inner Orbit
I've got them all !!!
On your list, or in real life? Franken Dainty Lady is on my want list, and I've got Rob's Inner Orbit . . . just not in bloom (on purpose).
On my list. In real life I think that I ordered yesterday Rob's Inner Orbit. I don't have any Streps.
LOL...I didn't have any.Scroll down to Dainty Lady.

No calls yesterday or today ??
Please keep in mind that if I do skip a day on calls, then I will make up for it the next day. I'll try to make the calls about the same time each day, which is after the kids are in bed. So, that means approx. 8:00pm CST.
