I'm greedy, so I grabbed the roses from Brushwood. Hilarious! My DH has been wanting more climbing roses (he just loves the one crawling all over our front porch). They had, oops, run short of one of the roses and generously offered to replace it with anything on their site. So I have two lovely roses and a very pretty pink clematis in my future. Heh, the holes are already dug! The email from them was waiting for me when I fired up my computer this morning and we got things sorted out in short order. Nice folks!

woofie, I wouldn't call that greedy at all! You've entered so many raffles that you deserved those roses - and the clematis! Can't wait to see pictures!

I'm thankful that I didn't have to pick first! Rolling on the floor laughing The prizes are always so wonderful that it would be nearly impossible to pick! But, I wanted those seeds really bad, and couldn't believe I got them when my turn came along! Same with the crepe myrtle last month! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!

Hehe-heh, Woofie, I figured you'd go for those sweet roses! I'd have wanted them too, except for our dratted rose rosette disease.

I waffled really bad over those hibiscus seeds too, but didn't take time to research them first. Great choice, Natalie!

I chose the gift certificate from Santa Rosa Gardens. Hurray! I just love shopping there! They are so reasonably priced, their service folks are so nice, and their plants never fail me. Thumbs up Thanks SRG!

Well, I must say I am impressed! Brushwood contacted me on Monday to sort out what to ship and when and I received those three lovely plants on Thursday. Well packaged and nice, healthy looking, good-sized plants! I know, I'm a derelict, I should have taken pictures, but I get too concerned about getting plants unpacked and fussed over. Angel
