Hi, I bought seeds for all the new Shockwave colors and so far my favorite is the ivory. They are all still looking good after almost 2 months of summer weather, but purple and ivory are the best performers. The other colors available are pink shades and pink vein. And i know wave petunias are really pricey but you guys are paying too much for them! You should try buying them on ebay -> LINK That's where I bought them.. 10 seeds for $2.50, they arrived just a week after I ordered them (and I'm in Brazil!) and shipping/handling is just $1.50. You should also take a look at Summer Hill Seeds. Shipping to US and Canada is $3.00 and they have really nice prices. Also I always get free seeds every time I place an order there (seeds from their catalogue, not cheap ones!). Hope you enjoy! Mauricio

Thank you all for your warm welcome. I would have answered sooner, but I decided to find out why the GW hates my ellipses. So I grabbed up my trusty axe to chop my way through the dense jungle of complex computerese to find out. (Do the Nerds really have to talk like they do on the web? I wonder if they're just showing off.) Anyway, it turns out that Linux does not shake hands with Microsoft when they process ellipses. I don't know what Linux did to annoy you Mr. Gates, but I wish that you two would makeup and get this straightened out. I have decided that there are ways to get around this - short of switching to Microsoft. Maybe if I just complete my sentences without using an ellipise, but I rather like the dangling, airiness of them. I could type out the word ellipis or perhaps typing period comma space, period comma space, period may trick the computer. But maybe it would be easier just to get used to �. If this were audio, I imagine its what the bleep used to cover up a naughty word would look like. Again, thank you

splitrock you made my day. I hesitate to show you a wider view of this garden as it is much too packed with perennial plants. The front row alternates with campanula 'freya' (out of bloom) with gaillardia 'Arizona Apricot'. Just behind that border is a row of two huge wonderful 'candytuft' (of course out of bloom) alternating with 2 Oso easy 'Paprika' roses. And at the very back (closest to the deck) are *6* rose bushes. (With opportune pruning I really can keep things in check) Oh wait, of course, right in the centre is an obelisk with the clematis 'Tie Dye' with the two phlox 'Shockwave' at the front corners of the obelisk!

I think I may have discovered the problem with Fire-fox. I went in to options and set it to "when Fire-fox starts show my home page". It was on "show my win-dows and tabs from last time". After I made that change back Fire-fox stopped acting up. I don't know how it got changed but, I will see if it continues to work normally. Mikie, When I put my mouse on down-load a little box pops up from social servey panel . org wanting me to do a servey to win-- an-- i--pad etc. When I put my mouse over servey a little box pops up from in box dollars . com. to win-- something. In all the time that I have been on this forum I have never seen anything like that attached to a link. Did you know that those things were there? Since I saw those I will not be clicking on either link. I'm sorry mikie I don't believe that this is your fault and I am wondering what is going on here? Please check this out and let me know what you have found. This is very strange I have misspelled words and put dashes on words on purpose so that they won't show up in blue to be able to click on here, so it isn't just you Mikie that it is doing this too. Everything that is highlighted in blue when I put my mouse over it shows up. Thanks everyone for your feedback, I really appreciate it. thirdfrt!!!
