i edited my above post.

no you were right about the frivolous frills and the pink one.

(i got the orange and pink confused at first)

 

[beefy]

you dont have to send me anything and there is no rush about if you do. i can find plenty to do. lol.

i will share more lilies next season, but most of mine havent had time to multiply as i just got them this year or last.

( i meant to send you some mystery daylily seeds but forgot )

Hi,

Yes, my package has arrived safe and sound. Not a single thing was wilted and everything looks incredible.

I was expecting something but nothing can describe the amount of plant product that came through in such a small box.

I already sent Beefy a Thank You email, but I also know how nice it is to share our new treasures with everyone. It is almost like a gift to everyone when we get to see all the goodies!

Sadly, I broke my camera. I have no clue what happened but the driver is not recognized and when I tried to retrieve a new driver from Kodak it is not working. Microsoft is not recognizing the driver either. So I guess it is just a technological wonder to put on the shelf.

Hopefully by Christmas I will have a new camera, I promise to share everything then.

Here is a list of things I got:

2 pieces of Kalanchoe (red and pink)
2 pieces of Bromeliad (one with a nice red bloom spike)
2 pieces of Coleus (very pretty colors)
1 rooted piece of Hoya (see how crying for something works LOL)
3 nice bulbs of Hurricane Lily (I put these in with my other Amaryllis)
a nice clump of Purple Hearts!
a nice clump of Asiatic Dayflower!
a huge clump of Spiderwort (which I divided into 6 plantings!)
a beautiful specimen of Resurrection Fern (this is an epiphyte)
a baggie of seeds for African Iris (called Fortnight Lily)

And, the most special part! I got a stow-away! When I was mounting the Resurrection Fern a spider stepped out to say hello!

I was very careful not to cause him too much stress and he is now living in my greenhouse. I hope that one day he forms a nice web so that he can help me keep any flying pests from bothering anyone!

I am so thrilled to have been on the receiving end of a wonderful selection of plants. I promise to share soon!

glad to hear no plants were harmed in the making of this thread, guys.

the boxes on the other hand may tell a different story...

OMG, I keep doing that, I think I have missed at least one of them when describing them to folks in emails. When I initially wrote you I completely forgot to mention the Bromeliad!

Yes, Hens and Chicks! LOL

Thanks again Beefy!

The Coleus are doing good. They looked great when I got them. Then they wilted for a few days and now are perking back up!

Thank you for clearing up the names of the lilies for me.
