$20.00 cash
Multi-use Plant tool (Really cool!)
Choice of: a handmade dream catcher, a hand-painted clay pot, or a hand-painted wooden apple basket, PLUS a plant of choice
RULES:
I will post 2 random choices from the plant list(http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/p.php?pid=5969629) daily on this thread. Posts may be made at any time, I will also occasionally post a “bonus” pick.
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 Syrumani verifies the bingo, the winner will choose a number (1-7) and will then receive the corresponding prize directly from the donor. (Numbers do not necessarily correspond with the order the prizes are listed). Your prize will be a “surprise”. ^_^
We have 7 donated prizes, there will be 6 “Bingo” winners and 1 “biggest loser”. The biggest loser will be the person who has the most names left on their card after the first 5 bingos have been called. In the event of a tie, Syrumani (or one of her adorable kids) will draw a winner from the remaining cards.
Ok—LET’S PLAY BINGO!!!!!!

mrsbonnie
I just wish mine would bloom . . .
WoW! That Tiny Wood Trail makes mine look like nothing! I shoulda played--would be winning!
thats a big 'ol whoopsie poopsie for me on the bonus! 1 out of 3, maybe on the next call!!!!!
Just so nobody gets mad,some vendors dont ship in the winter time,so who ever wins daves violets gift card will have probally have to wait till spring which shouldnt be too long from now
JIM
I would almost think that would be a good thing . . . that would give the vendor time to list more plants!
And with the weather in a lot of areas (like ours), we are 0 with a windchill of like -10!! Suppose to warm up tomorrow, I think we are looking about 20 and possibly back up to 40 by saturday!! Heat wave here in the midwest!!
And since I have the winning card, I don't mind! LOLOL
Good frosty morn everyone!!! Today's calls are:
3. Hoya – serpens
18. Alsobia – Chiapas
Yippee! The first call each day so far has been on my list of favorites! I'm going to call that a good sign. :-)
This is fun -- thanks!
Good mornin' everyone!
It is indeed frosty here at 14 degrees!
Bbrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!
Finally got 2!
none for me :(
I'm having fun today going through photos and cropping a few images to use in an article on Trailing AVs... I think a couple of my plants are fuller than they were the last time I got shots of them, so I'll have to bring my camera upstairs and see if I've got any new blooms on them. :-)
I hope everybody is managing to stay warm! Bundle up and stay home if you can... it's c c c cold out there.
I've looked up all the calls so far.They are all beauties,but I think I'm partial to Northwoods Frosted Moonshine.
Lynn
crit same here. I think they said the chill factor was 47 below this morning. Cold indeed and happy I don't have to go out.
Waiting for pics.
makshi,
I think you are getting what just left this area.Today we are having a tropical heatwave 22.LOL.
We're a whopping 19° here--whooo hooo put on the shorts & flip flops
Gotta love that hoya!! Just wish I could get the one I have to bloom!!
It's really cold here again today, trying to keep warm. Had to go to work this morning, burrr even inside the office! But, not as bad as some of the rest of you are having. It was 0 again here when I got up, but its up to 18 now. Suppose to get in the 40's tomorrow! Even though its really cold here right now, it truly hasn't gotten too bad all year until now.
hoyas like to be root bound for blooms--guess where I am going tomorrow Laura;)
That hoya is a beauty in bloom!!
uh oh, tell me its not....... don't do that to me, your going the springfield way aren't you??
^_^ if the warmer weather forcast holds--heat with wood so if its gonna be cold gotta stay home--but I CAN go back most anytime...--jlmk
I hope you get warmer weather so you can go!! Isn't it your daughter that you said is in springfield? This month the weekends are pretty booked up, in fact I think we have something or another until the end of feb!!! How's your March lookin???
