I finally got a little garden plot here on campus and am about to go out and plant a small ornamental hybrid I have (no name, but blooms at about 2ft), and also I'm going to try my luck with planting seeds in the ground.

Ah, you are so lucky! The remembering "what's what", I mean. And not having Gophers or nasty "other zone" weather taking out plants and ruining the Order.

Yep...I've been trading like crazy. My wife thinks I'm completely nuts, but I tell her I've just gone bananas... };^)

I'll have many pups next year for sale or trades. Our weather is s'posed to be around 80 degrees, but it's been rainy and cold lately. We're s'posed to get more rain on Friday and possibly the weekend. I already have my potted bananas under cover so they aren't too wet, but I'm hoping it warms up a little for the next few weeks.

Not a clue on the sexual preferences of the Burmese Blue.
