| You are so thoughtful! I'll try some:-0) Mike |
|
| Sure, Mike :) Email me though the GW link with your address and which cuttings you are interested in. Seeing your interest in citrus, would you like some Kaffir lime (used in Thai cooking) cuttings as well? I am sure you already have Meyer lemon. mrao77 |

| OG, you were quicker than me. I did mine this morning. You feeling the need for more plants? :) I feel honored that I seem to be in the 'biggest sinner's plant club' ... but, I can still do that, because my 26 are still tiny and aren't taking up much room yet... :) |

| H, Rose, It is hard to say who is a bigger or smaller sinners. We are the confessed sinners, but there are a lot more unconfessed sinners out there. We sinners, generate demand, grow economy, actually is a good thing to sin. I bet nurseries across the county love us... the more sinners, the merrier they are... LOL...Except the wallet... :( I think we should create a sinners club and thereafter the sinners heaven...Sorry , I forgot, it goes down not up...LOL. I don't really care which way I goes as long as it is fragrant... |

| I wish my nose worked better... I swear I barely smell anything unless my nose is right up against a blossom. I have a nightblooming jasmine inside with 5 flowers on it - and I sit beside it at night, watching tv - and - I don't smell hardly a whiff... is the light from the aquarium and tv to much? when all the lights are off - and, I go into the bedroom - less than 25 feet away - surely there'd be some scent... but, no. and, soon the mandavilla blooms will be opening in my bedroom... and, will I smell it? the perfume tree in my bedroom - has lovely little yellow buds ... no - don't smell those either. my poor doomed nostrils. and yet, I keep trying. :) |

| I am trying to get a hold of Annie (Olympia gardener), who was one among a couple of GW members that I sent jasmine cuttings though this post. I still need to obtain payment from her for the shipping, and have sent several emails with no response. The check that she sent bounced! Not only did lose the shipping charges, I got charged an extra $25 fee by the bank for depositing a bad check! I see that she is still active and posting on the forums as recently as today, so I expect that she respond to me. |

| Hi, Maro77. Sorry I did not check my e-mail often recently. I am surprised to hear the check bounced which had never happened before. I need to check with my bank. Did you deposite it last Nov. right? |

| Mrao77.... Hello you and thanks again for sending me the cuttings! :-) In Olypia's defense, I know she has been out of the country and I hope it all works out. My Mom made her something and it took her a while to let me know she got them, and many ignored e-mails, I thought she got lost in a black hole.. Not becaus she didn't appreciate it, but she was just away. Mike |

| Thanks for the comforting words, Mike! I certainly understand things can happen, and as you can probably tell, I have been under a lot of stress, and am getting tired of a couple of bad trades. That said, I can certainly give any person the benefit of doubt . I can only say that after 2 1/2 months and several emails, it begins to test my patience. Honestly, it is not about the shipping charges, I would be happy to send cuttings. But the inconvenience of having my bank charge me for a bounced check that someone else wrote, and it affects my account. I certainly hope this clears out and everyone is happy. Thank you for understanding my predicament. |

| The epiphyllum is growing ... What a strange plant, I'm looking forward to seeing what she will look like when she fills out more. Those stems grow in the weirdest place, not on the soil, but from the sides of the leaves. Not like any other plant I've seen. Will this plant ever look less alien? The other two didn't take, bit that was the risk of a late season shipment. |
|
| Annie/olympia_gardener Did you ever check back with your bank about the bounced check? I had hoped you would follow up with me on that matter, but you don't seem to respond to emails. I hope you will get back to me soon. mrao77 |
