Life is "mind over matter". If I d
Jill--
The Ric Rac I gave away to Rawlings is still there and thriving.
They re-potted it in a lg. clay pot and put it among the rocks of the Mediterranian
House's huge pond.
There--it learned to grow roots all among the rocks and is now part of this pond.
I have not gone back there more than once. That time--it was done blooming--
but the Folks that work there assured me it did.

I have also given away the humongous Maya Brug to Cylburn) --i am sure you,ve seen
the pictures)It was almost too big to fit into the Citie's Pannel truck. Took me 2 weeks of begging for them to come and get it.
Then--I gave away my huge Dr, Seuss--except the "Taker" (Mike--the Guy who is in charge of
all the GH displays)--was rude and arrogant and was not even there when I delivered my blooming Brug to him. I had cut it all up in 55 appropriate size cuttings, marked "up" and "down"
on each, plus the whole rootball and base stems of the brug itself.
Each time--there were a couple staff girls to receive my "gift". Mike was not available.

I called him a couple times (he was downtown somewhere) and when I got a hold of him--he said arrogantly: Man! You don't let a man breathe!!
In the future--I will not accept, nor do I want any contributions from you!
HIS LOSS! I bet he rooted all those cuttings and made a lot of $$$ selling them
as growing plants at their Market Day at Cylburn.

Sorry--I just don't let any of you breathe either--do I? I go on and on...
Got so much to tell everyone....G.
