thanks

Hi, everyone, my Wife mailed out the robin today , But she forgot to get delivery confirmation! ugh. Mellen - Please let me know when the robin arrives, Thanks

Graig I Have the conf# wrote down so not a problem DID ya find lots of new ones to try ??

That was a super quick turnaround, Craig, and hope you enjoyed having the Robin and finding new seeds to try.

Today I worked on splitting more seed packets and just might be half way finished. As soon as I am, ya'll watch for the list. Looks like I got a little carried away ordering. OK I got a lot carried away...lol But that's a good thing since I love sharing seeds with you all and trying new ones in my gardens too.

Susie, Are we going to have a guessing contest again when the Robin lands home?

WE COULD HAVE I HAVE LAVINA'S Surprised Gift ready to go out will try to mail it tomorrow .

SO Guess away we have less players this time so really should not be to hard Just remember to
Not Count a HOLOIDAY Or SUNDAYS :) well i have got to get off here Good night all .
back for coffee.

When we guess, are we going by the previous guideline to only keep the Robin a maximum of 3 or 4 days, unless weather is an issue?

I'll go first-

april 28th-my son's birthday

yes figure 3-4 days & take in mind also bad weather No weekend mail. mail out on MONDAYS ,WEDS , SAT
Usually

I will post at the top as soon as i get a few guesses :) happy gardening all

Susie -

please put my guess at May 10th.

Carolyn

I'll say May 1st - my mom's birthday.

Sorry - I'm a bit dense....what are we supposed to be guessing? The robin is to land where?

when it ends, or gets t the last person, or maybe gets back to deejay. guess i am not clear either. just fun to guess.

This time you Will guess as to when it will land BACK HOME To Me :)) .

MELLEN : ARE YOU HOME ??? OR ON THE ROAD ? The robin is headed your way .to land POSSIBLE TOMORROW WED >

Hope everyone is haven a great day

I will be home by Thursday or Friday. Will let you know when I pick it up at the PO.
ME

Just posted my complete list of 2011 Commercial seeds above with number of packets available and seeds in each one. I'll keep up with everyone's requests there as well. If you're before me and request seeds, I'll be glad to mail them directly to you and don't need to be reimbursed for postage. Maxine, you take a peek too.

Susan they all Look so good I Just Don't have room at this time for any more seeds :)))
BUT TY :)))

Have a Safe trip Home MEL :

hope you all have a safe evening I have to go feed & Water then lay back for the evening
GN All

FOTV-may i please have lime basil and snow on the mountain?

If you change your mind, Susie, just let me know.

As a side note, the creeping zinnias are new for me as is Ptilotus "Joey" and are supposed to be good candidates for containers and hanging baskets.

Gotcha down, Karen.

hanging baskets :)))))) sTOP tWISTING MY arm :) hehe

thank you

FOTV ..... I would like the following

Salvia “Snow Nymph”
Zinnia “Violet Giant”
Zinnia “Envy”

Evelyn ...FOTV listed the seeds she just added in the 4th post of this thread.

MARY

Aw, never mind! I found it! LOL!!

Yah wanna' see my garden?

Evelyn .... I was aware of you having a white garden bed ... just not that large.

Tomorrow. I'll be helping my daughter with her pre-k students. Her aide will not be there (upper grades going to see a broadway musical and she is one of the chaperons).

Tomorrow is a special day for the lower grades .... it's Dr. Seuss's birthday .... there will be lots of Dr. Suess activities, including making and feasting on Green Eggs & Ham.

Susie, I can't take May 1st - duh...that's a Sunday, Change mine to May 3rd.

FOTV -

I'd love to try some of the zinnia creeping vanilla seeds.

I chose May 10th because it was my great aunt's birthday. She was such a wonderful lady. I named my daughter after her. She died back in 1997 at the age of 94.

Aw, MM! Those are the veggie beds, not the "white flower border"...LOL!!

We had a lot of damage from this last storm...

You're welcome, Karen.You're ahead of me and will get your seeds in the mail.

I've also reserved your requests, Mary and Carolyn.

Evelyn, do you live near Yosemite? It was a favorite destination years ago when I lived near San Fran. I was a lousy skier but did enjoy propping my feet up in the lodge next to a roaring fire.

Hmmmm.... Evenlyn .... maybe mother nature thinks you may need more fire wood (hopefully not until next winter)

FOTV ~ No, we do not live near Yosemite, though we went through there this fall on our way to Southern CA. We are in between Lake Tahoe and Sacramento, 20 miles southeast of Placerville, the nearest town, though it is a city now.

MM ~ -------------------------------------------------------------------

FOTV, I'd love some Snow on the Mountain if it is the Euphorbia marginata. TIA Cam
