Took approx 3 weeks.Not bad, considering they have to languish at the Canadian side of the border until officials figure out what "palm seeds" are :lol: :lol: Barb

"ahem! D R A I N H O L E S!!! "

Oh, the pots had drainholes, the yub they were in, did not.... water was never supposed to accululate in there, but 90km winds took the lid, and the brick right off the top, along with a pot of gloriosa lily....

All my windows are pretty full already, come spring, is a different matter...... Ive had no luck with the trachys yet, but ive grown dypsis arenarum, and dypsis lanceolata, and i always seem to have luck with musella seeds too..

Grats again
