Jeanne.... I went looking for your trade list and it's not up top???? Well anyway... I'd like to have something from you ... anything.. I'm not picky, and i'd like to give you something in return.. check my list please
TY Trishann!!
Charlene.. you are asking me to cut my baby?????...lol... I'll see what I can do for you... btw.. are you referring to the orange on?
Pam... do you NOT know by now... that this is NOT the place to NOT be piggish???.. LOL.. Hey always ask!! I think I have another one, just for you!
East Texas Ru May 16
Purty Charlene!!
Went by the Lookout today and found out there is a large family reunion there Saturday also. My friendly caretaker will try to save us our usual shady spot on the north end. I will get there before 8:00 to reserve our area. It has the large covered area and the BBQ pits.
REMEMBER to observe the parking rule and do not block fire lanes.
Folks coming from the south, Jacksonville side, the exit does not say Love's Lookout but only senic rest area. If out-of towners need my cell phone number, D-mail me and I will aend it to you.
Excited about seeing the gang and new gangsters on Saturday.
DDdude
Hi Texasgrower, I sure do. I have been potting up plants today.
DDdude... you think someone might need to be there a lil earlier?? I wouldn't particularly want to share the pavillion with a family reunion..lol
I'm taking this all in and have ya covered on those....Charlene, now you know why they are my favorites!! Thanks bunches...AJ...The Guara is yours.
"eyes"
Well, Becky...just a thought, if we got crowed out...we could take it all to David's place....;D
"eyes"
hmm good idea... Jeri... bet he'd LOVE us for that..LOL
Oh.....you know he would!!
"eyes"
Charlenesplants, I have you down for cilantro,purple oxalis and love-n-mist.and I'm getting angelina purple,passion vine and moonflower. did I make a mistake?
Becky, don't harm any young'uns for Pete's sakes girl. Just wait 'til they get some age and save me a few cuttings this fall. You know the purty one that was opened when I came by and you gave the one sitting next to it to me to take home. Well my gift is very pretty, but my greedy heart yearns for the purtier one.
Charlene
Phyliss, it was a typo. I had done some cut and pasting and goofed. Dde, had not asked for moonflowers and passionvine, it was lil o you. I had his name down for some reason, but I can't remember why now.
DDe, would you mind d-mailing me your cel number? I am coming in from Buffalo. Also, I don't think we have a trade do we?
Charlene.. that IS the same plant!! The blooms were more red in the GH, but even before i planted her in the brug bed, they were turning orange, and been orange since... I'll still get you at least one cutting. I actually took cuttings from the 2 hibs i had last fall before going to Arlington, so I'm anxious to see "what" color the other pot is... l
Beck, my list is up on the May 5th at 7:05 or something like that. Now if you'd really like another brug, I do have a rubileneXpeanut seedling for you. I have a confederate rose. So surprise me with anything else you have. When I plant it, I will go through the garden everyday and say hello to Miss Becky. (my yellow dats never germinated, hint hint, if you have any left)
Thanks Trishann. I'm looking forward to seeing the pot and the canna.
does anyone by chance have a small dogwood tree they want to get rid of??? If so I'd gladly take it off your hands LOL
Ok so once you get your cars unloaded we need to make sure to park in the parking spots leaving areas open up by the rest rooms for others
and we will just make sure to have the door prizes under the large pavilion so we only use one spot instead of the two like we did last year.

I didn't like this...our 30 percent chance turn into 100 percent in a heartbeat and beat out another 4 inches....jeeze..where to go to get away from it for awhile!
"eyes"
Phyllis... I think I have a few, that are about 12-18"... you willing to tackle a dogwood??..LOL
sure thing
OK.. I'll go out in the blistering hot sun, and wipe the sweat off my brow.... just for you....LOL
LOl oh thank you dear sweet Becky
hehe.. you are most welcome!!
I think I have all plants organized for the RU. With post on many threads, I may have overlooked someone. The holly hock are sick and I am ashamed to bring them but will pick out a few of the best. Lion's tail have not showed up yet so can not bring those.
Please D-mail me if there is a real want from me and you want to make sure I bring it.
Look forward to seeing all and have a big time.
DD
David, any of us that have had the torrential rains of May this year, we feel your pain...but God has a way of bringing it all back from it's puny stages...ain't that great!! No apologies, circumstances beyond your control...I can't remember God ever asking me what my plans were.
Bring whatever you can, and of course, that bubbly personality.

becky I just noticed the pic of the hib up above ....wow that is pretty
Right in the nick of time..... whew.
Nothing like waiting until the last possible minute, huh?
Ok, as ya'll know, we're still not moved into our new house, (about 3 months to go, though!!! Whooohooooo!!!!!), so we don't have much to offer. I meant to take cuttings of some of our salvias, but just didn't get that far.
Here's what we have:
Milk and Wine Crinum
City of Portland Canna
Yellow King Humbert Canna
Lemon grass.
Kinda sad, I know....but by fall, we'll be back in business!!!
So, who has plants left????
Last year, people asked Dave and I to be very specific in our want list, so I tried to put together a small list to help us get started in the new house:
Daylillies
hostas
tropicals (for Dave)
shade plants
Trish, I have a daylily or two I can bring you... I would love to have.
Yellow King Humbert Canna
Lemon grass
Trishann
I know it is getting close but could we start another thread? It is taking forever to pull this one up since it has almost 350 replies to it. Purty please?
:~)
NEW THREAD Please continue over here

link is there back to here
Trish, I could bring you this Daylily...

I may amend my plans and get there at 4:00 am if I am the back up plan. ;} Do not worry the friendly caretaker will have us covered.
dude
But David Dude, you invited us to your place! Remember? LOL I bet you are hoping for the thunderstorms, right?
come rain or shine we will be there and if DD is going to be there early we will have the larger pavilion so we should do fine and rain is good for the plants anyway I have a couple of umbrellas if needed to move the plants from the cars to our spot ...and umm last I knew none of us were sugar so we won't melt... yeah Becky your one of the ones that will say you are but I know better LOL
It will be fun playing in the rain with all our gardening friends...
But of course I might melt..LOLOL.. I'll just make sure I bring my comfy walmart clogs..lol.. then it won't matter if i get wet.. Peg and I will try to get there early as well.. Lyle is still in TN and i doubt he'll be here fort the RU... so i might still need some help getting the fire started for the hot dogs
BTW... please remember to bring serving utensils for each food item you bring, and be sure and have your name on each...TY
Salt melts faster than sugar.....nananananana
"eyes"
well sugar salt either way LOL
alright Teri.. be nice..LOL... I'll have my umbrellas too just in case.. I agree with trishann.. it'll be fun playing in the rain with all my DG friends.. I can't wait to see all of you!!
Okay, I just have to say, I am not going to be there at 4 a.m.! We had planned to camp in Tyler that weekend, but we never got our act together and made a reservation. So, I'm planning to leave about 7 a.m., which means I'll probably actually make it out of here about 8. I won't get there until 10:30--or, if the mall traffic in Tyler is as bad as last year, maybe even 11. Will all of you early birds still be there????
