Hi, I am looking for an Indiana Water Lily and Pinkies (Water Forget-Me-Nots). Have to trade: Colorado Water Lily, Small Aurora Water Lily, Pink Flamingo Water Celery, Buttered Popcorn, Purlple Pickerel Rush, Butter Cup, Bog Bean, Varigated Bamboo, Creeping Jenny. Also have land plants: Northern Sea Oats, Forsynthia Bushes, Porcupine Grass, and Ribbon Grass. If you have the Indiana Water Lily or Pinkies or both and there is something I have listed you want please e-mail me for a possible trade.

I just love So Many Stars. I don't have anything like it in my garden. And I just ordered Primal Scream for fall delivery. Great set of blooms and hope to see more. Vickie

Just received my end of a trade from Indiana.Matt. He sent lots of iris and lily of the valley pips. They were packaged well. He shipped quickly. Will be sending my end of the trade in a couple of days. Hope to trade with him again in the future.

Post office from the inside: I have 2 sons that work locally [neighboring town] as mail men. They are amazing at their job, good work ethic, fast, etc. However, many of their coworkers are lazy and don't even do the minimum. They sometimes don't deliver something since it would be inconvenient for them. Horrible. Their bosses are incompetent, they keep new workers that are on trial if they fear a lawsuit due to "diversity" issues and much more. One manager picks on the good carriers and ignores the bad ones, probably insecure in her job that she is terrible at. [she's been at half dozen post offices and has quite the awful reputation]. One carrier on the normal probation period when new, wrecked 3 times, had dozens of complaints a day every day, hid on route doing who knows what, etc. [one accident is enough to not get the job] yet they kept him and he got his own route. My one son who does rural is super fast so they dump stuff on him from all the incompetent others. Fortunately he will be finally getting his own route after 3 years. He can be done by noon or one pm [rural route carriers are paid by the route] so he will finally reap the rewards of his speed with accuracy and friendliness. The other son has a city route which is 8 hours a day. He was on his way to management after just a few years [fill in manager] and then he rejected it because the system is so broken. He will stay a carrier. Happily our little town of Wilmore has an amazing post master and good carriers. Brad
