July Bingo Calls and chat #2

Well Dad Gum It Blah.... none for me again : (

I love to come over here and see the pictures of the plants...................so glad you are doing that threegardeners!!!!!!!!!!!!

:)))

Yep Gail .... that's one of my favorite parts .... getting to click on and see those gorgeous photo's of each call!

Got another one! The episcia 'Moonlight Valley'... gorgeous!

Karen

They are both such Gorgeous plants! I would love having both!

Got both...up to 8 now. I'm flying!!! lol

I have 9

Nice calls -- even if most aren't on my card, LOL. We've had enough calls that I was wondering if somebody was going to yell BINGO! over the weekend.

I've got an E. 'Moonlight Valley', but it struggles despite being under a dome. I think it's not tough enough to do well on my shelf!

We had a lovely weekend here, definitely enjoying the cooler weather. I think my posts will be shorter until the heat returns... although I might just take the laptop out onto the deck... As gardenwife posted recently, "Putter.... 'puter... putter.... 'puter... "

I don't know if The Velvet leaf is on the winner's list but they are a great company........thanks to you Makshi.................the leaves come with all the history and a marker already made out..............

They are a great company it looks like. Thanks for sharing how they are sent.

And tonight's calls are.........

Woo-hooo!!! We're ready!!!!

It's been quiet today... I guess everyone is outside enjoying the pretty weather! It barely got above 80 today here, which was lovely. DH spend the afternoon at a work-related golf thing (tough duty, huh?), and I puttered and weeded in the garden.

OK, I'm concentrating those ESP vibes.... what will the call be??

I wonder how close we are getting....

I have a feeling it will come down to about 6 or so calls left before anyone Bingo's.Thats how it usually works..LOL

Where are the bingos I want to go to bed. Very tired today.

ok....enough teasing :)

Tonight's calls are:

12 Columnea Florida......more unusual columnea flowers...

24 Episcia "Suomi".......who doesn't like yellow flowers?

Good luck all!!!

Thank you. I like the yellow Episcia.

I got one of them! The episcia 'Suomi'... and this is on my wishlist!

I had the Episcia on my card too! But not to worry, that only makes 8 for me.

Makshi, I hope you have a restful night. I couldn't sleep last night, finally got a couple of hours after the sun came up, so I'm thinking it'll be an early night for me also.

I Love that E. 'Suomi' .... on my card and on my "Wish" List! I'm up to 9 .... somebody must be real close to hollering Bingo!

Wow! Thank you for doing this threegardeners! I have reallly enjoyed looking at all the pictures.
I just got all caught up on the calls, and am at 9. The prizes are all great! Thank you to all who are donating them. What great fun!

I confess, I had to google it... http://www.slco.lib.ut.us/pioneer-day.htm

Well ... I've got 'Wild Irish Rose' ... but not the Chirita. I'm up to 10! Someone must be getting really close by now. I bet we are going to hear someone hollering Bingo by the end of the week!

wishing all of you good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm chugging right along here with 9 so far.Wonder if anyone has more than your 10 Lin?

I can't find the prizes on the thread................where are they, do you know, cedarnest?

Hey Cedar ... Oh, I'm sure someone has more than 10! There are a lot of folks who just sit back, watch and don't talk a lot. Me .... I'm a chatterbox!

Oh good you found the prize list Lin.I was looking for it for Gail too : ) Thank You! I would love to win ANY of those prizes.They are all really great!

Aren't they Wonderful Prizes? I know I'd love any of them. I keep telling my husband he can give me the AVSA subscription for Christmas or my Birthday (preferably Christmas cause it comes before my next B'day)! Those gift certificate's for plants are so nice, and I've been wanting to order those Ladybug planters but still haven't done it! And, of course I would even love the "Tail End Charlie" prize of leaves!!!


So .... Thanks to all the donor's for some Wonderful Prizes for this game!

My school started on July 11th, and I was finishing a summer class toward my Masters degree (all while getting over broken arm) so I have been reading but not doing much posting. The AV bingos have been a high point of my day since there are a lot of things I can't do right now. Thanks to those who put up prizes, and those doing the work of the bingo. I love the enthusiasm and looking at the links.

great wins!!!!!!!!!!! thank, Lin...............waited as long as i can ...........to get to the social security office and admit I am 65 (LOL)

Here is three episcias I purchased on Ebay from PJ .The names are Acajou, Raspberry blush,Faded Jane. I purchase one of them with the gift certificate I won in June AV bingo. Thank you JanetS.
Patti

65 Gail??Well you are still just a spring chicken : ))
