The link to it is also on the 'our' Name That Plant front page - a link to 'share the season with our Garden Galleries' or something like that. It is a showcase of photos but I agree with WW, there should at least be a link to the forum names that are represented in the galleries, back to the forums where the discussions take place. Otherwise just gloss. I'll have to check back to see if my post ever took. I was going to download a photo, but I noted it said from your computer, not a host site and it could not be more than 500kb, and I'm not donating any of my photos to be owned by GW if I can help it.

Perfect! Thank you all for your encouragement. I gotta get some more dirt (don't we all???) but I'll plant them this weekend-- well, the not-quite-birthday girl and I will plant them (hey, it is her party after all!). I'm hoping for good sized plants, and would prefer that they bloom for the kids at their new homes anyway. I think they will like this more than a packet of seeds (hopefully). Karen, why not borrow the idea for boys? All my daughters little guy friends (I hate to call them "boy friends") love digging in dirt too. Just plant some cool veggie seeds instead. Tell 'em that worms live in gardens too; most little boys seem to love worms. Good luck! Marcy

The butterfly garden forum listers, where I cross posted, have confirmed that me calling the caterpillar a male was correct. Identifying the sexes has something to do with the width of the "bar". Anyway, he was on a mission! Pheromones are an inborn signal and his urge to find a mate was strong. People on the butterfly garden forum said they tend to return to where they were born to mate and lay eggs. I hope he can convince his mate to return to my backyard! K

You found me out georgeiii, it's all a conspiracy to silence delusional wannabees in forums around the world. I'm the same guy who actually assassinated both John F. Kennedy, as well as John Lennon. The Secret Service just pined it on other people to protect their favorite assassin. I grew tired of all the traveling, so now in my golden years I have switched to the political terrorist division of the Secret service. Now I get to sit at a computer all day while sipping cocktails on the balcony, searching out people growing unhealthy plants in their backyard. The objective given to me by the Secret Service is to make sure the bogus claims made by some aspiring wannabee who has no clue what he is saying is replied to. After all the government pays $500 for a regular toilet seat, they surly have the money to (pay me) spend in such useless ways. By the way Regina has been assassinated as well. Not by me, but by one of my other associates. We just couldn't allow her to go running around talking to people, even after she came to her scenes. But it's no biggie to us, the bullet only costs 13 cents. But on the other hand it did cost $40 to get a day laborer to dig the hole. So sorry, dropping her off and forcing her to fallow directions wasn't going to work. Though the government has authorized me to offer you 10 million instead. Will you accept a post dated check? Their good for it. See I always wanted to be able to fly under my own power Your flying all right. Flying as high as a kite. I don't know what your on, but you can have it. I prefer being grounded in reality, I think I'll stay on planet earth thank you. Break off little chips of the Styrofoam with your finger nail into the bucket. Soon youïÿýll see the Styrofoam pieces stick to the sides of the bucket. Then theyïÿýll start to float above the rest. Youïÿýll reach a point where they start jumping out the bucket Congratulations you discovered static electricity. That's amazing, it's not like static electricity was discoverer a few hundred years ago or anything. georgeiii just made the discovery of the century. When is the ceremony to give you the Excellence in Science Award for discovering static electricity? See as you say homie thousands of people read these threads everyday and now this idea is out there too. Ya, The idea of you being high as a kite on drugs has been out there for a long time. You just make it more clear every time you speak.
