Round Robin Exchange

NEW: small round robin first five

18 years ago

I would like to do a small round robin, first five posters get in on the fun! I would like to do a 1 pound box I'll fill it with things to start it's flight. I will take a trip to my moms this week( I am sure she will share something interesting for the box)I would like members with kids to respond, so we can put a kids surprise in the box. When I have all info and confirm who is playing we will start the box out. I will put the flight plan in with addresses and age and gender for the kids surprises!

Is anyone game?

Well, our Round Robin has finished its rounds and I got some great stuff! I got: Mac's Just Jeff LE Chato Brion Perfect Harmony Lillian Sparkler Aly's Key Lime Pie Irish Lullaby Louisiana Lullaby Imp's Beta Blocker Jolly Maiden Country Romance Neptune Winter Smiles Broadway Star Trail Tiger Trail Harmony's Blue Frills Aca's Coral Beauty Optimara Hiroshige Cherokee Trail Rob's Slap Happy Foxwood Trail Deep Sky Jolly Orchid Cajun's McKenna Trail Episcia Lil Lemon Episcia Pink Panther Kohleria Bogotensis Strep. Sioned Strep.Neil's Envious Strep. Ruby Primulina 'Kazu' LIK Nobleman Everything looked good, except for one or two leaves. Thanks, Susan for the one-day delivery! I got a great variety of standards, minis and semis as well as several plantlets. I have had Episcias in the past and am eager to try them again. I haven't grown Primulina or Kohleria so I have something new to grow which is fun. I look forward to doing this again in the spring. We have a good group who sent out great varieties. By spring, you all should have lots of plantlets for our RR! Thanks everyone! Linda

Hi Everyone First I truly apologize for dropping the ball. I should have been a better host or reached out to see if there was someone else who could host while I couldn't. As things kept happening in my life, I kept thinking, it's just this one thing or once we get over this crisis, I'll have time to get back to everything again. And it just hasn't stopped. Not as an excuse but only for explanation, the last few weeks have been a turmoil with my grandmother in & out of a coma, my parents possibly getting a divorce, and my own job up in the air. It's still not over, but things have calmed down enough to come back to this. In the last couple weeks, I did try to contact Peggy (pdsavage) a few times with no response. I also know that Sherri tried to contact her to confirm receipt of the box, again with no response. At this point, I'm assuming that the box & Peggy are long gone, which is sad & disappointing since this was supposed to be a friendly swap. For my part, I'm sure that many of you are also disappointed with me & my lack of attention to this RR. Please believe me that it was not because I didn't care & I really feel so sorry that it's ended up this way. Anyway, for now, I think I cannot continue to host this. I know a lot of you lost many valuable seeds & cuttings as well as time & money & trust. Again I'm so sorry for that, & will contact you individually about it. A great thanks to those who did participate in good faith! Sincerely, Grace (celeegra)

Hi everyonefor your convenience and to make the tracking of this Robin simpler for everyone, Ive now separated the posts for this Robin into two Groups: Fabulous Favorite Green Group: SGUANZON - RECEIVED JCPYBURN - RECEIVED ARAILLIA - RECEIVED ILOVEFARAC MARGEC NANCE BOGARTBABY SNSHNDYDRM LISAM627 and the Fabulous Favorites Blue Group: MELLEN - RECEIVED HUMMINGBIRDDAISY - RECEIVED DJM906 - RECEIVED SHIMLA SCOUTTIEGIRL SKOHLER MYOHHMY EFROSTY1 PASTVAST MARISHA2 LISAM627 Please post in accordance to your group - when you receive the Robin AND when you mail the Robin. Dont forgetlet us know what "favorite" seed youve added to the box! Dont be afraid to post your thoughts/feedbackeveryone likes reading them! Also, if you havent emailed me or posted about being placed in the second mailing, please dont forget to do so if you are interested!!! What would you think if I combined the two boxes upon their return and mailed a single box for the second mailing? My thoughts on this are that what the girls at the top of the lists missed seeing what seeds were added to the box by the girls on the list below them. Just a thoughtthanks for doing a great job so far! PLEASE DON'T POST HERE AGAIN - THIS THREAD IS COMPLETED. Thanks! - Lisa

Okay! We have our players, waiting on one address, and I
should have the box off by Sat! Pretty sad but I had to look at the map to figure expected flight! I should have done my Geography homework in highschool:)

Okay! Everyone checked in with addresses, I am working on the box, but had to take a few Beach hours with my boys. Baby Jacob slept right through it all, maybe it was the "white wave noise!" I'll update later tonight, box should go in morning mail, and I'll let you know who should be watching first!

Okay Ladies! Sorry to keep you waiting, but the bird has taken flight! Should I tell you who should be watching...or should I let it be a surprise? I did go with a Flat Rate priority box, but the recipient will see why when she gets her box which should arrive Wednesday:) If anyone wants to just do the original one pound Priority Box that is cool, I just had a heavier item so it made sense for me to go flat rate! ok, enough rambling...Sue... keep your eyes open! DC# is 03050830000416127068. Hope you like the box, have a good day! steph
