@Australis, you can award those acorns at the bottom of a members post, that way it's easier to see that someone got their acorns, either from you or someone else. Thumbs up

I just want to THANK YOU for getting others to show their location and/or zone (like: Baja California, zone 11). It drives me crazy when I can not tell where people are, especially considering we totally need to know for gardening. I'd give you acorns, but I don't have any. Smiling Hurray! Thank You!

Thanks to the generosity of @valleylynn, I now have more acorns available and would like to give 25 each to 4 more people. Please have your profile updated with location/zone info, as before. (Or ask for help if you don't know how, and I will be ready to assist.) This new offer is only for people who have not already received acorns in this thread.

And since it's a beautiful spring day out there, why not go out and take a few garden pictures to help populate the database and earn more acorns! Smiling

What constitutes a landscape photo?
You don't kick walls down, you pull the nails out and let them fall.
