Jack gave me so much good advise about my gloriosa lily. Look How it bloomed this year.

Jack sent me Gloriosa lilies too but I didn't do so well - not his fault but mine. He was so generous

Wow, beautiful Gloriosa lilies and asters.

It is sad news to hear of Jack's passing. Jmorth has left a big beautiful green thumbprint here at NGA. He will be missed.

Jack was kind enough to send me some of his tubers, than when I had issues with them coming up, he instructed me in the error of my ways, I had them too deep! Always enjoyed communicating with him. Horrible disease

What a bummer,

I just found out about Jacks passing, he was always so kind and helpful. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him here on NGA. RIP Jack.

I'm so sad to learn about Jack's passing that I'm unable to express my feelings.

Big hug to his wife and to Plato.

Gorgeous

I was looking at my mum's today and remembered it was Jack that told me to get them

Oh my goodness, I just saw this! That is so sad! Even in the short time I've been on here, he was always very friendly to me and will definitely be missed.

Jacks passing has made me aware to tell my friends how important they are to me. As someone who has no family left, my friends are my family. Jack was family. I think of him often.

I just learned of jmorth's passing! We tree-mailed a couple of times, but I didn't know him as I was still pretty new to the forum last summer. I'm so sorry. God's blessings and comfort to his family.

It's daffodil time. I'm sure it was Jack's favorite flower. I still give thumbs for his photos. He's with us in spirit.

I have been away for awhile and I was looking for Jack on the bulb forum. He started my journey with daffodils and I even tried forcing once because of him. So very knowledgeable and I watched eagerly for his posts. Rest in peace Jack, thank you for teaching us.
