When you are out and about, I would like a native maine blueberry plant, the ones with the tiny tiny blueberries like Wyman's sell. Do you think there is any chance you could dig me a couple?

I also have Meyer's lemon seeds, will also check my lavender and see if it is stoechas.

Mekos!! Yes What shall I add to your Jack in the pulpit?

Stevia if you still have some but you don't have to. I'll share. Most everyone has been really great welcoming me in and helping me. I'll have lotus maybe later this fall. I have Mrs Perry D. Slocum, First Lady, Chawsan Basu, and one that blooms red(can't remember it's name) but I got them in the spring for my pond and hoping for blooms this summer and possibly will have small ones this fall or early spring. I'll share. I got my green smoke tropical lily saturday but it was stressed and broken pretty bad so it may be a while before it perks up, but I'll share when I can. I'll send you some parrot feather Monday or Tuesday so it will get there before the weekend. Mekos

I have Stevia rooting now when it is ready I will send you some.

Great. Thanks.

I do have 1 water hyacinth, but they multiply fast so if you don't find one soon, as soon as mine grows a baby, I'll send you one. I just got it saturday and a frog turned it over so the roots were out of the water this evening when I looked at it and turned it back over so it wouldn't die. But as I said they multiply fast, so I'll have plenty soon. Mekos

Robin, I should have some yellow water lily in a week or two. Interested?

Robin, did the water plants show up yet? I was hoping they wouldn't have to stay in the post office sunday and the others I sent the same day has already arrived in florida. Just wondering if they were ok.

Robin:
