I will! Smiling I actually wasn't expecting much for colors, I am trying my hand at raising adenium seedlings since I've never done that before. It wasn't expensive, so whatever color it turns out to be, as long as it survives (me), I will be happy. Hilarious!

On the plumeria items on EBay those purple monster looking things from Thailand look so photo shopped and to me obviously fake...I don't know why Ebay allows it. Grumbling

Many folks have practically screamed Bloody Murder at ebay for their lying, dishonest sellers, but ebay does nothing.

I still like the rat that was trying to sell the nice, old plants for .99 cents with $700 shipping! Zero bids, good to see...

And yes, a yellow blotched with red is as close to orange as there is now. Grow some marigolds, haha

Whew! I thought it was hot here but your temps have us beat by a long shot. I'm glad you got some rain, here's hoping you get a steady supply now.
