Heard the mailman coming and ran out so he wouldn't have to get out of his truck in the rain. Plants were expertly packed and look great.

I'm assuming the plumeria is coming in a separate box?

Sure hope I can keep my clems alive for 6 weeks in the house any one have any suggestions ??

Gloria

Variegated plumeria will be shipped to me in 10 days if you ordered cutting or (please order cuttings) i sill ship those at the same time oh and btw you all have the pics of my garage/packing area with all the plants and bulbs staged there look at what i got today in the mail.....no not lily's yet but you never know i have got plants at 8pm before???



CLICK ON PIC TO SEE BETTER AND SEE ALL THOSE LITTLE BAGS......PLUMERIA SEEDS WITH A BOX FULL OF WHITE PUDICA PLUMERIA CUTTINGS..

The rest of the house is just as bad also its spilling out the back door and all over my yard!!!

hope all you are happy with your plants and bulbs I NEED TO SEE PICS THIS SUMMER of all your flowers.

To keep alive keep slightly moist and as bright of light as you can and cool temps will slow them down. remember they are vines so they can be pinched and the will start from other nodes!! they should not be to hard to keep alive i suggest good draining potting mix in about a 6 in pot maybe you dont want them starved for space but root bound plants normally grow slower then not


my idea but others might have better

Oh my - i got a lovely box full of healthy beautifully packed plants.

I'm so excited about the clematis - and the lily bulbs look awesome. I've ordered from some of the top lily bulb suppliers like the lily garden and B&D and the bulbs you sent look just as good as theirs (for a fraction of the price).

You Mike are a doll, and so good natured and generous. Thank you for these awesome plants and all the work you put into this.!!!

Mine came yesterday!! They look great!! Thanks so much Mike!!

Mine arrived! Anyone have insight as to when to plant the lily of the valley here in zone 5b?

Lily of the valley ...grows best in part shade not to much direct sunlight and for the first year after frost/freeze when ground gets up to 60 they will do or you can start in pots in a bright window and replant outside when conditions are better if its to cold still

this is what i was informed of

someone might know better

mike

Thanks, Mike!

Sounds like everyone got GREAT items at GREAT prices! Wish I could have stayed in the co-op but due to unforseen circumstances I had to cancel my co-op order & go out of town for an undetermined amount of time. BUT , I got the GREATEST flower anyone could ask for in exchange---A NEW GRANDSON!!!! He was born 9 weeks early and was only 3 lbs. but he is ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE!!! They expect he will not be heading home till around the end of April but so far all is going well and we are VERY HAPPY to have him!!! So all in all having to cancel my co-op order was worth it!!!!

congrats to you and family bet he will be a BIG boy one day soon

Oh Congrats Shirley! I agree, a new grandson is way better than a flower order!! Oh my, only 3 pounds! So tiny! But, I'm sure he will catch up with the rest of the boys his age soon! It's amazing how fast they grow!

That's a great reason to cancel the order, congrats on the grandson.

Well we didn't get to do the flea market because of orientation at college. That meant the trailer would have to go up Wed. night and Thruesday all day the trailer would be out in the sun and the plants would fry. It turned out ok but the money part because it rained friday night, sat and today. We wouldn't have had any customers any way. Hopefully next month things will work out. The news I got Thursday night at orientation was great news. Only 25 people showed up for the payroll specialist class ands they had 25 spots available for grants. The GREAT NEWS is that between 2 different grants it will be paid for 100%. Yeah!!!! Not only that BUT drum roll please.....They are giving us a 3 day Sat class in June with a test to become Nationally Certified Payroll Specialist anywhere in the U.S. That alone was to be 295 dollars but one of the grants will pay for it too. They told us people who go to 2 yr accounting degrees will not have that certification. I am so excited I could pop. Now if my brain will kick in I can fly through this and have my National Certification. I really need this to go through as my son and his friend (renter) moved out this past weekend. I am not sure I will be able to keep my house as I had to put a roof on it and must pay 200 a month on that and so much for them leaving the food in the pantry or the refridge and freezer . Oh well I am going to try to get a renter but that is scarey. I know I will do a back ground and credit check and have to have 3 rental references. Not just friends. I don't know where to start as I really am afraid to do this.

If I have to sell and give up my yard I will just have too. I can't see any other way. BUt 1 thing I do know they will not move back in.....

Thanks everyone and especially Mike and Wil for the chance to get great plants.

Congrats Shirley!

my niece is about 2 yrs old now and she weighed just about that when she was born. she is doing great weight is where it should be. the parents said it was so hard not being able to hold her while in the incubator? but they do wonders with kids that yng and size.

keep us informed of progress and if i have any left over would you like for me to send you a list or are you staying and watching over that little bundle of joy!!

I never have any problem with people cancelling there order.

mike

THANK YOU for all the congrats! He is getting bigger and stronger every day--hoping he will be able to drink from a bottle soon & then feeding tube will be able to come out! Our daughter got to hold him the other day for about 10 min. & he looks even smaller when he is in her arms!!! Sooooo tiny but absolutely gorgeous!!! Also, guess getting "laid off" from work turned out to be to my advantage as I was able to be with our daughter so unexpectedly--600 miles away:( Am NOT going to want to leave!!!! This is our 5th grandchild and they all belong to our daughter--guess she is following in mom & dads footsteps as we too have 5 children!!!

He is precious.....and he will change your life too!

OH! He is adorable! And it sounds like everything just worked out perfect! Yep, God knows what he is doing, even tho we don't always get to see what His plans are right away.

Congratulations, Shirley. He is beautiful.

Yes, Sandi , you are absolutely correct in that statement! We lost our precious boy at first but he was given back to us and he has been making tremendous improvements every day!!! This was our precious bundle at first (soooo many wires & contraptions ) and now he is down to just the feeding tube & heart monitors(heart issues) but all in all the docs say he is progressing at an impressive rate!!! We are truly blessed to have him!!!
