I have to confess, Jim, that they are moving out this weekend. I have no room for them, but there will be plenty of people who will have them come spring.
I love that "when I'm all growed up"!!!
What do you mean? I am turning 67 and still can't decide what I want to be when I 'grow up'. In fact, I don't like reality very much. I just like 'magic'.
January II Blooms
;( darn
Reality is a frame of mind . . . I don't plan on growing up anytime soon . . . but it doesn't hurt to try to plan ahead!
Unfortunately--I growed out instead ofup. ^_^
Beautiful plants as always Gail-- you definately got the "touch".
I am the only person I know who hasn't had any teeth (at all) for over 6 months due to some dental surgery...........and I haven't lost one single pound! (LOL) I, too, have grown out instead of up, Gran.
You only have to try and plan ahead when you are young , nichole........when you get old, you just get up in the morning and thank the Good Lord that you got to wake up that morning.
Don't think we 'old' ladies don't remember what energy it took to rear our children and do exactly what you young ones are doing right now..........I call it "paying my dues"........I have paid my dues with all the responsibilities of rearing children, working, etc. Getting old is fun.
Having said all of this, now I have to find a picture from somewhere on my puter.......this is before I started putting names on last year. She looks a little like Hera maybe....
good night!
Had to check back in before going to bed, I was hoping for some pretties and there they are!!!
Gail, I know you dont like the shipping thing, but its better than people skills!HAHA
I have to tell you, honestly, I like my dogs more than most people!! LOLO, sad but true!!!
could be several different ones,picotee comes to mind ,its not dark enough to be hera
or lynns ruby red,or crimson blaze or,several others.my guess is picotee
and i do have and cant wait for mine to bloom,
JIM
Morning All,
I have bronchitis and a sinus infection... I have had it for awhile and so did everyone in the house then mine got worse so doc's it was... Now on antib's, steroids, cough meds, and a lot of other crap...LOL I am not going to take pictures now but when I get home from work and if I am not fully dead my Japanese strep Kimi bloomed and the Sako is on her second bloom and much pretty then the first... I like how they are a more delicate flower.. At first I did not like it but I think they are so cute..
Going to take my cough meds and rest again before going to work... Will try to get pictures later of the two streps... All my streps are blooming and I have to say this is when I love them the most... Gloomy days and a sunshine of flowers in the house....
Susan

I took a "few" pictures this morning. I'll try to post as many as I can before I need to leave for work
Last night, Rob's Mad Cat made an appearance.
Here is one of my trays of episcias . . . I've got to repot some of them this weekend . . .

mrsbonnie - I've got a baby Bon-bon getting ready to bloom, too!
I've got to get ready for work now, so this is the last one for this morning. Purple Panda is still going strong . . . and the Bristol's Potpourri getting ready to bloom next to it is one I grew from a leaf cutting . . .
How much fun to see all these pictures! I love pics!
Thanks.
Bonnie, when did you get so serious about avs.......they look great..........and Nichole, too.
Did not want to start a whole new thread for this as it is self limiting. Does anyone have Fc2? I need descriptions for 1)Dolores Sugar Candy and 2)Trinket O Pink--thanks...need to know how they s/b grown.
Dolores' Sugar Candy (9303) 01/09/2004 (D. Harrington) Single-semidouble dark pink pansy/green edge. Medium green, heart-shaped, quilted/red back. Miniature
Trinket o' Pink (E. Champion) Double bright pink. Variegated green and tan/red back. Semiminiature
Thanks Gail. Unfortunately, they both look like trailers right now. Not sure I can rescue the form on either one. And now, a brief intermission for a current weather report from my world...
My car is encased in ice!
