There has been no change. His friend Billy told us that he would let us know if there was and we haven't heard anything since Friday night.

How did I miss Quinces and Persimmons?
Q
Comments (6)
How about Asian persimmons (Fuyu and such)? They are even better, but a little different, than American persimmons. I would kill to be able to really grow them here. I'm experimenting, but long term they won't make it due to weather. Really, there are all kinds of unusual fruits out there that many people haven't tried. If I lived in Zone 7, I'd be experimenting with things like Butia capitata, the Chilean Jelly Palm, with various hardy types of pomegranates, with the various Citranges, which are hybrids of regular citrus and the hardy Poncirus trifoliata, with figs, with Pineapple Guavas. I do have a question about your quince -- 1" and brown doesn't sound like any quince I know, even the flowering quinces -- those generally have a 2 to 4 inch diameter fruit with is kind of an orange color when ripe. I am wondering if what you sampled isn't a quince, but is perhaps a Medlar, which is related to quince, but has roughly 1 to 2 inch, brown fruits that aren't eaten until fully softened (called "bletted") and are said to taste like applesauce with cinnamon?

Patricia, is it safe to tell Deb that you agree with her that I shouldn't have gone back to work from the ER Thursday or worked before the surgery Friday? It was tempting to stay home from work this week and putter around the garden. I'm guessing you think I am crazy (Deb does) continueing to work. I did show her I can run the right hand controls without hurting my thumb and promised to stay off machines where I can hurt it :) Deb says Hi! What can I say? I dig my work Deb says 'Thank you Carla :)' She just loves those things. They require frost time in winter. The colder our winter is the better they do that season. Take care of your thumb too. I have found out that squishing aphids is just as much fun lefthanded as right. There is no way I can stay inside and take it easy this time of year.

Re: Komoriya How Did I Miss This??
Q
Comments (35)
Well... I sent one last picture of my dying aulicum (which is now in the garage) to the good folks at Komoriya and Hiroko did get back to me and said they would send me "2" aulicums! They arrived yesterday and I guess they look OK but they had been peeled which makes me a little nervous... I have to give them credit; they have been very fair and generous with me and this is the second time they have sent a replacement bulb with an "extra" and of course they absorb the postage. These both had stalks, roots and leaves that had been cut so it will be a very long time before I see them bloom. I had asked them but they didn't reply as to which variety of aulicum they sold; does anyone out there have a guess? It is very different than the one I got from Telos. Komoriyas is quite a deep scarlet where the Telos variety was definitely pumpkin orange. Donna

Mirian I may have some cuttings to share with you very soon. I left alot of brugs with lost tags/ faded tags at my house that my son bought and they are huge now. All of them are named brugs but can't read what tags we could find. Let me know if you would like some--I will go over sometime this week and take some cuttings. I know I had Vixen, Pink Velvet, Mt Treasure and Mt Magic in that area. They definitely need cutting back though The ones I moved have lost some tags as well thanks to my illustrius yard man- he forgot to put some of the tags at the base of the palnts when he transpanted them GRRRR!

Dave News-Monday 5:24 PM

Dave was taken off of the ventilator yesterday morning and is breathing on his own. It has been reported that the tests show he has no brain activity on the upper portion of his brain. That is pretty much it for now. Sounds like our David is fighting hard.

We can still expect to see that miracle so many of us believe in.

I hope the news is wrong.

From a google search: A person can remain permanently unconscious with total or partial brain death. A person with death of only the upper brain (cerebral hemispheres) will not have consciousness, memory, knowledge or thought, but the living lower brain (brain stem) allows the heart to pump, the lungs to breathe and the body to function.

Keep Dave in your prayers. Miracles can and do happen.
