Way cool :) What's the name of the Jewel Orchid? I haven't got any of those...yet :) I found a Helleborus finally and I'm waiting for it to arrive, it's a dark purple red one but the flowers could be anything from deep purple maroon to a light red. Personally I'm hoping for the dark purple red. My Catasetum 'Pink Fragrance' has a spike with 9 buds thet are about 1/4 inch in size and my Bl. Morning Glory has 2 sheaths so hopefully it will have flowers (I hope I hope I hope)

more Jewel orchids............but since I am a pauper at the moment, it's a safe move.................for now.........I will send you a picture of her when she blooms and I have singled out three seedlings for you of trees. You said black cherry, right? And possibly a cedar? Wasn't sure of the cedar, but they are plentiful around here. I haven't forgotten about your little trees for bonsai, the first box was destroyed in the mails. I just need you to kick start my memory and e-mail me with yer address so I have it (this time I'm not screwing around, I'm entering it in my hardbound address book!
