I believe she no longer gardens in VA., but in Crawfordville, Fl. She popped in here last year to respond to a post and that was the last I heard of her, so she must read the posts. I believe she may have deleted her entry or perhaps it was actually on garden.org.

Does she still use the username of Marina.

I don't recall, but she must have because I recognized it. I couldn't find it in a search here, but didn't go back to far.

I see that way far back she used the username the_dark_lady

Don't see any recent post though. She might be on the other garden.org, but don't know her username there either. Thanks so much for trying to help,

I will search there tonight. The post had something to do with Paul Barden, which is why I remember it and also why I think she may have deleted it. I'm not sure what Houzz shows for activity if one deletes a post. Hmmm. May be I'll test that. Thanks for the correct spelling of dark lady. No wonder why I couldn't find her under that.

I can not find the entry so9 I think she deleted it. Perhaps you could comment on another old post and see if she has comment notification on. She doesn't have her messaging turned on as I'm sure you know. (Yours is turned off, also! ) I think your best bet is contacting her through HMF, but just be aware that they have not been notifying me of messages recently so it may take her a while to get back to you. You'll just have to take your chances that she looks in her messages. MarinaHMF
