    Aye, Aye, Cap'n.

    Sorry to have gotten ahead of my self (in more ways than one).
    And since this is the FIRST Round Robin I have ever participated in, I guess those unspoken, unwritten rules just passed me by.

    Turns out, I have Meliflua coming in the mail, and other takers for the bella.

    You are hearby returned to your PREVIOUS Programming, and I hope you have a blast.
    (Oh, that means 'count me out'.)

    are you sure Cena? We'd love to have you with us ;)

    I am not really good at keeping track of complicated things because of my disability - that's the only reason I wanted to keep the format clear and clean.

    :)
    cheers

    oh do stay georgette!
    Kimberly

  • 19 years ago

    hi Georgette -- I was waiting for you to come back and post us your picks, but I'm confused -- are you "cena" or "georgette"?

    We need all the joiners we can get girl!

    :)
    warmest regards,
    pb

  • 19 years ago

    This sounds great, a lil confusing, but GREAT! My cuttings of DS-70 are unrooted-FYI. I also have Lacunosa and Publicalyx 'Pink Silver'. What is the next step? Thanks!

    GH

  • 19 years ago

    Yeah, it is a little confusing. If I had known what a 'round robin' really was in this day and age, I could have preempted the confusion! LOL :)

    I SUPPOSE WHAT WE SHOULD HAVE DONE IS SIMPLY HAVE EVERYONE LIST THEIR "HAVES" ONLY.

    Then each member could just choose 2 available cuttings.

    If we remove our "WANTS" (since it looks like we won't be able to match those anyway from the list we've gotten so far) everyone would get something. It might not match their WANTS, but I wouldn't mind that so much!

    What do you all think?

  • 19 years ago

    So here is what it might look like:

    plant.babies
    HAVE: H Carnosa 'Holliana' varig. & H. Lacunosa

    whisst
    HAVE: n/a
    (will receive Holliana from plant.babies)

    Georgette
    HAVE: shepardii, bella, rooted leaf of kerii

    Little Green Thumb
    HAVE: hoya tricolor (lowes) & hoya obovata

    Grow Everything
    HAVE: pubicalyx, carnosa (unrooted cuttings)

    Grow Happy
    HAVE: H. DS-70(formerly Tsangii)

    Does anyone want to receive any of these offers?

  • 19 years ago

    I would like H DS-70 i think. I need to look some of them up first!
    If anyone wants to see what my Hoya Tricolor looks like post and let me know. I did post a link on the previous Hoya RR post.

    Boo hoo....I have everything that I want already from the list of available plants. Maybe we can try this again in the Spring?

    GH

  • 19 years ago

    Yes, we can do this again in the Spring. I wish more people would join, but I think I messed it up w/ the confusion and not knowing how a round-robin is conducted in the garden world!

    I am going to be having major surgery, so in a few weeks will not be available for maybe 6 weeks. I'm hoping less, but who knows....

    I am planning on sending whisst the varigata anyway. I just wanted to make sure I got the two bugs and no more were coming. One branch tip died for some reason - maybe it didn't like the GSE spray, or I watered a bit too much. But the rest of the plant looks good. Now where did I put that priority mail box.....?
