Hurray! Hurray! I won, I won. Green Grin!
Just came in from the garden and I see the great list of winners, congratulations to all of you. The best prize was watching the video. I am still smiling from ear to ear after watching it. I send virtual hugs to the entire family.

And many thanks to all of the amazing nurseries providing the raffle prizes. I had such fun browsing all their websites and making lists for next year. Hurray!

Hot dog! Loved the video, as always, and I'm always excited to hear that "uzuz" is the winner. I just have to wait until SCButtercup makes her choice before I can choose my prize, but they're all great prizes this time!

Oh my gosh! Unpacked my Major Award.... A dozen plants from Flowers by the Sea. Arrived today safe and sound, very well packed and healthy after their cross continent journey. Flowers by The Sea is an amazing nursery! I've never seen plants like this before, and I thought I knew salvias, so excited how they will look next spring. Thank you flowers b the sea for donating this great prize and thank you Dave and family for this fun website!
