there will be an insane ramble after I get home from werk which will
be off topic but I am in a writing and communicating mood and want to
share with ya'll. BUT the incredible news is the Jewel orchid that
sweet Iris Cohen sent me has a BLOOM SPIKE AND BUD!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOO
HOO!!!!! The house fairies are happy with me! g (next I'll
discover the blood lily is poking up outa the soil in the
den..................GBSEG)
madgardener up on the ridge, back in Fairy Holler overlooking English
Mountain in Eastern Tennessee zone 7, Sunset zone 36

Way cool What's the name of the Jewel Orchid? I haven't got any of
those...yet I found a Helleborus finally and I'm waiting for it to
arrive, it's a dark purple red one but the flowers could be anything from
deep purple maroon to a light red. Personally I'm hoping for the dark
purple red. My Catasetum 'Pink Fragrance' has a spike with 9 buds thet are
about 1/4 inch in size and my Bl. Morning Glory has 2 sheaths so hopefully
it will have flowers (I hope I hope I hope)

the Jewel's identity will have to be revealed by Iris. The tag that came with it only reveals the orchid nursery
it came from......

NOW you've done it..........you've provided a link to pictures of a couple
more Jewel orchids............but since I am a pauper at the moment, it's a
safe move.................for now.........I will send you a picture of her
when she blooms g and I have singled out three seedlings for you of
trees. You said black cherry, right? And possibly a cedar? Wasn't sure of
the cedar, but they are plentiful around here. I haven't forgotten about
your little trees for bonsai, the first box was destroyed in the mails. I
just need you to kick start my memory and e-mail me with yer address so I
have it (this time I'm not screwing around, I'm entering it in my hardbound
address book!
