Free psycho cutting competition

tdogdad
11 years ago

To win a free cutting you just have to be the first in order to list the date or nearest date before my large psycho drops its last flower. Each forum member can only enter one date. Dates beyond the day of the last flower do not count as closest. Take a shot- it will cost you nothing. Bill

    Kim- Feb 15 is already taken. Dates still open in Feb are 3,5,6,11,13,18,20,22,23,2426, and 27. Please try again. Bill

  • honeybunny2 Fox
    11 years ago

    Bill, Kim, and Tally are picking dates from 2014, and not 2013, they banking on having a mild winter. Barbra

  • Kimberly (6b Indiana)
    11 years ago

    That's weird when I did the ctrl F to search to see if that date was taken, it didn't list anything. Good lord, I thought I typed 2013 instead of 2014. I guess my typing isn't as good as it used to be when I took typing in school. LOL

    You can withdraw me as I plan on purchasing cuttings from a vendor in March which will swindle my space down. ;)

  • honeybunny2 Fox
    11 years ago

    Kim, then just pick a date before March, you might be the lucky one. If the date is past March, then you can still order you cuttings. Barbra

  • Kimberly (6b Indiana)
    11 years ago

    Barbra - No, that's ok, really. I've already wrote my wish list. ;)

    Good luck to who wins. ;)

  • honeybunny2 Fox
    11 years ago

    Now I feel bad, so Bill please withdraw me too. I will leave it for the folks who need plants. I already have too many. Good Luck everyone. Barbra

    Before this gets crazy, this was set up as a fun game for forum people not a charity for people who need plants. In defense of "psycho" I have hundreds of plants and over 160 varieties and it is by far the longest bloomer and the most prolific bloomer (although T.Lemon Drop could compete if it was larger and in the ground)in my yard. It also has a strong, spicy scent. The point is, in a temperate zone, a plumeria that blooms for 9-10 months is unique and provides a possibly fun game for friends. Please don't make it what it is not. Bill

    BubbaTimmy- I am about an hour and a half north of San Diego and about an hour south of LA (quicker in good traffic), not far from Disneyland. I think I survived the cold snap. Psycho had no problems and opened many flowers today- crazy plant.
    Mindy- thanks
