Squeeeeal! Thanks everyone!
I have a magnolia, bamboo, japanese maple, rhododendrons, lilacs, grape vine, cherry tree (in full bloom), raspberries and too much more to list! :D
And when checking out the house today, there was an envelope from Sherry waiting for me! Guess the seeds made it before we did..lol :D
Going to go check out the nurseries and see what my hubby can buy me for our anniversary.. heehee

So glad you like the seeds Trina....let me know what you end up sowing this season. ;)


So did you get some nice pottery? Great they have Basjoos, I was going to offer you one of mine but didn't want to promise anything until I see if they survived the winter! :ha:


So did you get one? Hope you're settling into your new home nicely. :D

Well, she appeared, then she re-appeared...


and now she's DISAPPEARED! :ha:


Trina, if you ever return to us, send me a pm and I'll let you know how to get rid of those weird codes beside your user title..."Resistence is futile".


Hope you're settling in ok, and you're enjoying your new home. ;)

Will pop in when I can but it won't be as often as I would like.
Hubby got me a HUGE glazed pot for our 9th anniversary.. I out the umbrella tree in it. Will take pics when I get a chance!
Sherry.. would LOVE to know how to get rid of the <div> tags, please PM!
I ended up with 3 bananas.. so far.. :)

Oh I can't wait to see the new pot! I bet it's gorgeous. ;) I figured you were real busy, but I just like to josh around.


How exciting for you Trina...everything so fresh and new! I'm sure things look terrific and I look forward to seeing your plants soon. Have fun! :goteam:


Oh and yeah, I'll send ya a pm now with instructions on how to lose the annoying codes around your user title...

Nice images Trina,

The house is like in Sarawak, Malaysia...on stilts if you will, really lovely.

Almost forest like.

Thanks for sharing!
