Tom, I got my seeds last week...thanks a million!!! ;o) I was calling some of our local nurseries before I received the seeds to see if anyone had a Wafer Ash & I found a tree locally. When I called, the nurseryman said he thought he had one but it wasn't in very good shape & I could have it for free. I said, "YES, I'd LOVE it!" Not realizing that he was referring to a 25 gallon tree! It is almost 8ft tall & looks like "Charlie Brown's Christmas Tree"!!! IT's HUGE!!! It is alive & he said that it has been in the pot way too long. It had a year on the pot of 2006. It also had a price of $225 marked out to $50...I can't believe he gave it to me!!! What a blessing! I took it home last Thusday thinking I could get it in the ground this weekend & it has now been raining for 4 days straight! Maybe this week some time, I can play "hooky" from my work & I can get it planted...it's supposed to rain next weekend, too! I have a BIG hole to dig...LOL!!!! I've included a link to the picture of it...it only has about a dozen leaves on it...the GST cats must have eaten the rest at the nursery! ;o) Here is a link that might be useful:

fancy meeting you here, marian :) other than "purple that takes over everything" I should have some star of clevedon cuttings to trade when the weather's nicer. got some edulis, piresii and macrocarpa but they haven't grown a millimeter in five months. I'd trade for brug cuttings for sure :D I'd do irises or daylilies if they bloomed year round, but I don't understand them to be everbloomers... we'll see in the spring though :) Ria

yes.....send me a ssae plumeria.....1929 moreno st. oceanside,calif 92054
