I am so glad you reminded us. I remembered seeing that someplace and I could not remember where. Thank you.

I really am not sure how much good the actual ID of these plants do me other than they let me know that I am not misrepresenting the plants to anyone I sell to. I do not want to ever sell something that is not represented properly. This hobby of mine has become a very time consuming project. Shrug! Especially when you get as particular as I have regarding IDing
specific plants. I do think when people trade it would be nice to know exactly what they are trading. The everyday person really does not care I guess. Only those of us who got carried away with our hobbies care. There are two questions I usually get from customers.
1. Can I put this in the sun ? 2. How often do I water this?? I know the answers to those.

I am off to get some Christmas Wrapping done. We closed the Tree Farm yesterday because we ran out of trees except for 2 already cut and business was very slow. We all have other things to do this week especially. Have a great day and thanks again for all your help.
