lol, srs... I have a digital camera but am clueless how the danged thing works... Okay, I might, at the very best, be able to figurate how to take the piccures but stuffin' 'um into this pudder is way beyond my grasp... I need a teenager... We have a walkie talkis that we can't use because we can't figurate it out... Same with out phones, clocks and just about everything else that runs on 'lectricity...

Hey, it ain't like we are a couple dummies er' nuthin but we ***are*** seriously lexdexic and can't make instruction books work for us... The P-Vine is worser than me and I'm bad... Like I said, we need a teenager to live here fir a couple weeks and teach us how to use all this junk we have bought over the years...

Now, as for yesterday... Everyone went away with all kinds of wonderful azalea cuttings... I am a firm believer that a successful garden has 50% white flowers so every year I go for the white hybrids... This year's hot white hybrid is "Secret Wish" which is a large flower (4 inch) with a glowing green throat... It's been around a several years but the originals have just reached adulthood and the plant really stands out in a garden with that glowing green hue to it... We have two one year olds...

I picked one of the 2 bags of "White Jade" cuttings that one of the hybridizers brought... Never heard of it but it sounds like its gonna be simialr to "Secret Wish"... We'll know in 2 years providing the cuttings do okay... I think there are 4 or 5 cuttings in the bag and I'll spred them between two pots to optimize our chances of getting one good plant...

All in all, looks as if we have about 25 bags of cuttings so I know we'll be busy over the next couple days 'cause that represents about 100 cuttings that need to be set...

We were lucky to have one of the most successful ptopagators stay overnight and we've been picking his brain for his secrets... He gets blooms on one year olds!!!

Gotta got...
