Did they turn ripe today?

Re: Ae Ae Contest!
 

The day has come. I picked 3 yellow Ae Ae fruit this evening. One is soft but the others will not be ready until tomorrow. The day we were all looking for is June 7 07. I added two pictures of the fruit on my site: http://togofcoralgables.com/AeAebananas.aspx

My DSL was high jacked today. Two days ago my wife went to ATT to get a cell phone. The sales people ask if she wanted to bundle some things with the cell phone. She said no and the we were happy with our DSL. This morning I had no Internet connection. I called Snappy and in two minutes I had a teck checking it out. ATT was trying to high jack my connection. My wife went back to the ATT shop and burned there back sides, she's a pro. Snappy had me up and working by 3 pm. It was a scam. Be warned.

Congrats modenacart.:woohoonaner:

Re: Ae Ae Contest!
 

So close...and yet so far. Oh well. Congrats to modenacart! Thanks for the opportunity, Jordon. Very generous of you to donate some rare plants.

I must say I'm rather pleased with my guess, seeing as I've never fruited an AeAe, and was taking a wild stab at it! Almost five months, with some cool months in there though. Bet it would have been a lot sooner if it had flowered in May, eh?

Re: Ae Ae Contest!
 

Wow that is great, and I never win anything!!!! I would like to return the favor in a couple of years if I can keep it alive. Just let me know where I need to send the shipping payment. Thanks so much for the compitition.

My wife and I are now getting the secondary prizes - all that fruit. We just finished dinner and on our plate was fried Ae Ae. My wife used a ripe but still firm Ae Ae and sliced it like you would for a fruit cocktail. Then fried it in butter.

Bigdog I was surprised that it took so long to mature. I watered the plants, but that's not like rain. We had a very moderate winter with a very cool spring. I have never counted the days but it sure seemed longer then usual.

Modenacart, email me and I will see about sending the orchid to you. The plant is Bc. Mount Hood 'Mary' AM/AOS - google it and see some pictures.

Tomorrow I will post a picture of the potted pup that was waiting for a local to winner.

I am now going to post the potted pup. Notice the percentage of green. This is not a green form, but just a overdose of potassium nitrate. It's on the bottom of the page.

'My Ae Ae Keepers' will get the pup and Modenacart will get the orchid. This is the same plant. The red spot just occurs now and then.

Re: Ae Ae Contest!
 

Thanks everyone, it was a lot of fun.

jnstropic, I couldn't email you so I sent some privite messages. Thanks once again for the contest.

Re: Ae Ae Contest!
 

Mitchel I am just now writing 'My Ae Ae Keepers'. It is all about getting the Ae Ae in circulation with out a lot of money. I told the people that were at the tasting last Sunday a little bit about it. The first written material will be on my site.

Congratulations to everyone - a great contest with a wonderful prize - so much fun!!
