I really like the AV WIR and the Chirita also.
July Bingo Calls and chat #2
Patti, those are really Beautiful and soooo Big! Can you give us the link to PJ's web page on e-bay? I would have no idea how to find her!
Thanks for sharing your Wonderful Prizes!
Lin
Aren't PJ's episcias so nice? I ordered the 'Chocolate Velour' a while back, and I love it! All of their plants are big and healthy like that. I posted the link to PJ's somewhere here... when I got mine... I'll see if I can find it.
Karen
Here's the link that I posted back in June...
http://stores.ebay.com/PJs-PLANTS-AND-THINGS
I won Suomi(lost mine a few months back) on Sunday from them and have a bid in on Chocolate Velour..(hope you all don't run over there now and outbid me!)..LOL..Just kidding.They do have some wonderful plants : ))
Oh ... so that site is just for bidding? I thought maybe they sold plants outright like some vendors do. I won't do the bidding thing ... too disappointing when you get real close on something you really, really want and then you lose the bid to someone else at the last second!
hmm..I guess i never thought about that Lin.I just checked and they do sell av leaves at Buy It Now ; ) Got some beauties too!
Thanks Nancy .... will have to check out the leaves!
boo hoo...............I have bad credit on ebay..........can't shop.............(LOL)...............
LOL...Gail...that might just be a blessing in disguise!!!
trust me.............it is a blessing..............makes me think out my orders from vendors............since I am an impulsive buyer...............ebay misses me (LOL)
Just a reminder... could you please add the daily calls to the list at the top of the thread? In previous games, some folks have relied on that list rather than scrolling down for the new calls (hard as that is to believe for those of us who pounce on this thread every time there's a new post!).
Today's bingo calls are:
31 AV Hush Blue Stripe.....

16 Phinaea Species........cute little dude........

'Hush Blue Stripe' is dreamy! Is it a chimera, do you know?
I have no idea, has to be with those stripes don't it?
Well I was up to 11 when this week started but I have had nada since...somebody must be getting close...
Va Rose that Chocolate Velour is a real beauty, you must really be enjoying it!
~Brenda
Well! I do not have either of those on my card! Arrrrrgh! I'm still needing 5!
I know someone must be close!
Thanks Brenda... it is a vigorous one! Can't wait to see it bloom!
I need 6 more.
Linda
May I please break into your thread and tell a wonderful grandmother story to good not to pass on:
My oldest grandchild (10) emailed me early this morning to say that she can't wait to get here tomorrow...........her mother later called to tell me the whole story...........Hannah asked her mom if she could still drive my car , the gator and other vehicles since her dad was coming, too................Ashley said they would have to wait and see if the yard was too wet for her to drive on...........Hannah then told her mom, 'My dad is the safety person for the family"...........which Ashley thought was sweet and then came the best part that Hannah said.............."Mom, you know Granny (the other grandmother) is quite serious about things with us"...................and then added, "Nana (that would be me) is just such a free spirit with us"..............I asked my daughter if that meant she thought they could do anything they wanted at my house and i received a resounding yes to that question!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds like you're a great "nana"!! So... is the yard going to be too wet?
The fun Grandma / Nana....that's what I want to be too!!
~Brenda
as long as she doesn't get stuck in the mud..........i am game to ride in the car with her all over the yard (LOL(
Tonight and from here on in, I think we will only have one call a day.....
Tonight's call is:
Episcia "Sea Cliff"......nice shimmery dude....
http://www.gesneriads.ca/episc27.htm
:( boo hoo ... not on my card! I still need 5 more!
: ) Had tonights call...still need 4 more
Still 10 possible calls left?Hope I counted right.LOL
Lin,when do you leave on your vacation?If the game hasn't ended by then dmail me your card and I will watch it for you.You could still win even while you are gone : ))
Gail sounds like you are going to have a blast this weekend!You are a cool grandma! Just like I plan to be IF I ever get to be a granny that is.Not looking too promising with my career obsessed kids : (
I'm gonna be in that same predicament I think, with vacation coming up. I thought the game would be completed in July. I will leave on Wednesday, 8/1, and won't be back until Sunday, 8/5... no computer during that time.
Oh well... it was fun while I was able to play!
Karen
Not to worry Karen,I can watch your card too if you would like.My record at winning isn't too good...I would love to be able to yell Bingo for someone! LOL
Nancy
Then everybody is cool with the one call a day? Or do we wanna get it over with?
Thanks Nancy! I appreciate that. We'll see what happens in the next few days.
8*)
ThreeG: Doesn't matter to me if you make just one call a day .... or you could make 5 tomorrow (the five that I need) LOL!! Just kidding!
Nancy: I am leaving early Sunday morning to fly up to Atlanta to spend a week with my youngest sister ... can't wait! We always have so much fun together! I am thinking about taking my laptop but her wireless has been down for about a month and no sign of her getting it fixed anytime soon. If I take my laptop I will take a cable to hook up to her computer but I don't have a clue how fast it will be and I am very impatient with sloooow computers. So, if no one wins tomorrow I will d-mail my card to you if you are sure you don't mind "watching" mine too! That is so sweet of you! I know I won't have a lot of time to get on line even if I do take my laptop with me. We are always on the go every minute when I'm with my Lil' sister! She is so active ... plays tennis every day of the week! And, walks for exercize at least 4 days a week! Hikes a mountain by her home! She is gonna wear me out I'm sure!
I will d-mail my 5 that I have left on my card tomorrow, ok? Again, thanks so much! You are a sweetheart!
Lin
LeeAnne how ever you want to do it is fine by me too.I can easily watch Karen and Lins cards while they are gone.Hey...maybe I will actually get to call Bingo for someone! : ))
Cedar is just itching to call Bingo, no matter who it's for!!! lol ; )
I still have 6. If you decide to call 5 tomorrow, may as well call one more? I'll dmail you the names. lol jk
Tonight's call is:
AV Satin Wine.......
http://www.avsa.org/Photographs/SatinWineLrg.jpg#http://../Photographs/SatinWineLrg.jpg#
12! I'm on a roll....
I hope everybody had a good week and is planning some fun this weekend!
:( boo hoo ... not on my card! I'm still holding at ten!
Nancy, I'm d-mailing my remaining card to you. (I need 5 more). Thanks for watching it for me! I won't be home until August 5th and I know the game will be over long before then! Someone must be real close! Oh, Hey ... Critter is real close with 12! Good going Critter!
I'm probably not going to take my lap top with me .... hopefully I will find time once in awhile and use my sisters computer to check in! Have a great weekend and next week too!
Good luck on the game everyone!
What say I post calls this weekend? Otherwise I fear we are gonna run out of July before we run out of bingo...I really need to pay more attention to what the date is :))
You gonna make another call tonight??!! Please, Please?
So true ... I wasn't even thinking about it running into August ... but, I'm sure someone MUST be real close .... I bet a couple of folks are getting ready to holler "bingo"!
hehe...tonight's bonus call is:
2 Ramonda nathaliae....seems to be a rock garden plant...cute.
