lol well its a long story. I learned the old school way. Not sure how they do it on photo bucket. I just learned how and just use my own html code. Heres what I do Where the red writing is that says URL Link copy and paste the url link to your picture there. There are two links one is for your big picture and one is for the small picture (or thumbnail) the first one is where the URL link to the larger picture is and the second one is where you put the URL link to the smaller picture If I don't want to use a thumbnail then I use this code the URL Link is where your large picture URL link goes. Just copy and paste the URL code. There is a lot of typing and remembering with this way but I guess its how I learned so its easy for me(-:

Hello my friends. I can always count on the same group of you to be very caring and kind! You are all a wonderful group of people.... I hope your plants are doing ok, and that your health allows you to do all you care to do with pleasure. The withdrawel off these pain meds and Ibuprofen since the break my heel has been no picnic, but getting there:-) Hanzrobo, remember I owe you ! Just remind me come the warm weather. I am very forgetful these past few days, ok? Anyone else I have promised something too, please remind me privately. Yes, I love the colors our plants give us. I just wish there were as many people as interested in my plants here, locally, where I live, than just on these forums. But it is just as awesome to come here and share our enthusiasm together over our plants, right? Thanks again, Toni, Josh, Linda, Andrew, Hanzrobo, Stush, Kathi, Rob, Sharon which by the way, my fig cuttings died:-((, and Teatree! I hope your plants color up nicely for you whether you grow them under lights, in a sunny window, or outside. I envy the ones that can just plop into the ground! Mike

Original info was: Probably 10" wide and 8" tall, thereabouts. Hard S-shaped curved handle, wrapped with ribbon/fabric and hard carved(?) oval-ish shaped frame holding clear material (celluloid or similar?) that acts as the fan. The clear material has etchings on it of what looks (to me) like South American or Mexican imagery. Fringed along outside with different colors of fringe I've never seen one like that! It looks like the curve might be enough to hold the fan on your wrist. What is the transparent material? Paper, celluloid or what? The framing appears to be rattan. I'm going out on a really skinny limb: The person on the fan appears to be an image of a Buddha holding a lotus flower with a curved stalk, the fan is also in the shape of a lotus flower ... it's oriental, not Mexican. It's not the usual shape for a "stick fan". Here's some links to get you going. http://www.fanassociation.org/links.htm

Kathy, your Koster rose looks exactly like one that a nursery here used to have and it was called Mother's Day. Looks exactly like that one. That might not be the real name, but that is what they were selling in the 90's as Mother's Day. Probably something from J and P, because that is the only place they were getting their roses at the time. I had one of these and a Margo Koster. They were alike except for the color. I looked on HMF and I don't see any red roses called Mother's Day, but I can promise you that this is what they had at the time. They probably just called it Mother's Day so they could sell more of them, as they bloomed right around the official Mother's Day. Suebelle
