Congrats to the winners!!! Hurray!

(I counted 18 prizes, though?...)

I'm glad I saved a few acorns on reserve...I'll have to keep my fingers crossed for January. Rolling my eyes.


Edited to clarify and edit the 18 prizes comment: I re-read the Hoya giveaway and it looks like the three hoyas maybe go to the same home? Which actually means I counted 16 winning spots? Ah well, the last two are likely to be the acorns anyway, so if there were two extra winners, it'll all get sorted out, I'm sure.

Congrats to all the winners! I know everyone will enjoy whatever they end up receiving! And remember folks, this was this years final raffle, so there is ample time to stash away a few acorns for when they come back around next year!

@Dave, I probably mis-counted. *Blush* Rolling my eyes. Big Grin

I counted 16 after re-reading that all 3 hoyas go to the same home (until today, I thought they were separate prizes)...

Let me work this out 'on paper' here...

3 clematis vines (maybe these are all to the same home, too?)
Victory Seed G.C.
Hoyas
Perennial Obsessions
Sharon's painting
5 plants from Plant Me Green
LALambchop's 300 acorns
3 winners each getting 50 acorns

Wow, those clematis and hoya prizes were great prizes at one per person...that's great!!! I'm really looking forward to the next NARR! I'll probably have my hoya fix by then, if all goes well Hilarious! ...but there always seems to be something amazing each raffle I've seen so far.

Dave, thanks again for hosting these NARRs...they are such a fun part of ATP!!! Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!
