| Beautiful fir Dax. I came close to buying a 'Golden Spreader' this spring. I wanted it bad but common sense ruled the day. That doesn't happen to often. Dave |
|
| I put in 2 little 18" 'Golden Spreaders' last year. Fried one, and the other is in a mostly shaded location and doing very well. Dax, I see a lot of these with a lighter lime green push around here but yours is almost a cream color. Very dramatic and pretty contrast. How long does it hold? mark |

| It's just a spring flush but at least three weeks. I'll watch it more closely cause I'm not really sure. Hi Ken, only since Saturday. Those were the real first days I guess I'd call them where the temps soared into the 90's. Prior to that nope. Later guys, Dax |

| That's a very nice looking plant, Dax! The name is great, too. (When I first read that I thought your sisters name was Lime. haha) Matt |

| Dax, the new lime green growth is beautiful and I like the name Lime Lights. |
