Thanks for the compliments Sam! I was SO embarrassed this afternoon talking to the Post Woman trying to send Mark Halls Corms + Seeds to him. Shipping was going to be 30 BUCKS in the box, 2 pounds TOTAL, but I asked the lady to scramble around a box that wasn't USPS. She found the ugliest box ever and let me put it in there. I had to leave the room because I marked it was a Christmas Gift to customs, but, it isn't :)

So finally (20 minutes later...) I get it done. Using the different box let it go down to $18.40. Ridiculous... I really hope Mark enjoys them!

Never again will I send corms internationally if it is always this much work! Whew.

I have not planted the Jacaranda yet, but I will let you know when I do.

& Don't plant all the Loofa because most, if not all will come up, so unless you want 200 or however many I gave you vines growing through the winter, only plant a few.

Anyways, (venting) Thanks for your compliments and iTrader rating!

i know this is going to sound horrible, but i think that is the funniest thing ive ever heard!:2236:. yes im laughing. everyone has a right to vent....everyone does it. just take a breath ,let it out and then....scream till you cant scream any more. you will feel better i promise! as for planting all 200 or so loofa....we could have a sponge sale.( ill send half the profits to you, how does that sound?) im only gonna grow a few at a time. when all my plants start spruting leaves, and the vines start growing, i may have to buy a machete. i will feel like this::2711:. thank you again taylor!

Sounds good to me! Only tips I have: full sun produces twice as many sponges, let sponges dry on vine, and elevate the vines...if you don't, it will also impair sponge production.
