EU October RR has started

Don't you believe it Philomel. I try really hard to make it acceptable on the packets, all capitalised *G*

Gerddi

Well I haven't managed to get it right so far so it must be true :)

Hi gerddi,
Got the package this morning,and I know what you mean by the expensive postage,lol!Size is a problem here:).
I will be sending it out by Friday the latest..so much to pick from!

Gwist

First ,hello Saya! Welcome to DG! You are from Holland..do you live in Zeeland? MY husband's aunt lives there now,but the family are originally from Rotterdam.What a lovely country you live in,I must say.
Anyway,I have taken the following seeds out:
Schizanthus
Colorado blue corn
lime Basil
Clematis orientalis
Chiogga beets
I also took some of the Cercis and Bauhinia seeds...I didn't want many,so half are left
I have added:
Mirabilis jalapa
DWarf sunflower"Gelber Knirps",really cute and they look like pom-poms! I added a small picture to the baggie
Pumpkin-Atlantic Giant
Okra-dwarf green pod
Cerinthe minor"Pride of Gibraltar
Lathyrus odorata-annual
LAthrus odorata perrenial
Canna indica
Nigella"Transformer"-little yelow flowers,but makes nice pods for arranging
Mixed Clarkia,or Godetia
mixed Coleus(Solenostemon)
Datura Stramonium "Tatulo"
Datura Inoxia
Crocosmia
Stevia-the sweet herb..love those leaves
Papaver Hens and Chickens
Cardiospermum
Aquilegia

The next stop is Wintermoor.I have changed the envelope,and added some blank return address labels,too.I was told here that as of last year,it is better to send anything out of the country with a return address on it.They may not forward it,and it may be destroyed.This also applied to things coming in to Switzerland since we also had the dreaded Anthrax scares last year.
I will post when it goes out,and the estimated TOA..yes I do ask these things,lol.
Gwist

Oh my goodness!!! You guys have got tons of seeds that you're all banding around. I'm lucky if I've got 1% of what you all have.

I'm looking forward to it though ;-)

Wintermoor

Thanks Gwist!

Yes I'm very lucky that I've found you all on DG. Thanks for all the warm welcomes. Gwist, I live in the very south of Limburg. It's a hilly countryside so near to the Ardennen and the Eiffel. But we have no sea nearby like in Zeeland that I love a lot also. I miss the sea, could'nt go to the seaside for holidays this year.

Hey... you all make me very curious for the seeds that are in this package.. Anyway I'll put my best seeds aside to put in. I'm looking very much forward!

Saya

O.k.,the RR is on its' way to Germany.They said 3-5 days,but what means on Friday afternoon is anyones'guess,lol.

Gwist

Gwist - are you Swiss or English?

gerddi,i'm an American..a Nooyawka,actually,but,no I don't talk with the typical accent,lol

I thought you were probably Swiss! What are you doing here in CH?

Hee hee..long story! Raising children and plants,but I will e-mail you soon.
Gwist

All the best

Wintermoor

Wintermoor

Thanks Wintermoor!

Has the RR not arrived at Deblynn yet??

I sent it out last Friday on 1st. class mail :-(


*getting worried*

Wintermoor

Not as far as I know WM, I'm sure she'll let me know as soon as it arrives, if I haven't heard by Friday I'll send her an email. Christmas post eh!

Southmede has received the other RR and it should be winging it's merry way to Evert.

I didn't know the Christmas post had already started, that could be the reason.

All the best

Wintermoor

Baa, won't Arsenic get it first?

Yes sorry Evert you're right of course.

Deblynn has received and sent the RR on to Evert and I've not heard from Arsenic but I'm sure he has it by now.

Thanks everyone and keep up the good work!
