Quite lovely as ever, man how I want to join in here but alas I'm forced to take a break from gardening in general. My entire life has changed since the quake and subsequent nuclear disaster. My focus has changed to more pressing issues as I recover from the depression that's bugged me for nine months, I realize the triviality of my previous pursuits in the name of self indulgence. So what's important to me now? My boys, my wife, my home and friends and my God and friends who has helped me though this most difficult time in my life. A changed man, a re-invented me knows what matters! However there will come a time when I can resume my pleasures with a whole new philosophy, I had to reach 64 to understand that! Well that was a rattle and a half! That actually reveals a lot of truth and I'm gonna blush here Love ya all, Jon Fortune favors the brave. http://cubits.org/DIYcomfortheserious/ Quote | Post #861539 (3)

Hi Helena. Lucky you, must have had a very mild winter! We had a very cold winter here with weeks of hard frosts, nothing has reseeded as yet unlike last year when I had to pull hundreds of seedlings out. Fortune favors the brave. http://cubits.org/DIYcomfortheserious/ Quote | Post #862253 (6)

Maybe after it warms up you'll get reseeding mgs Jon. I didn't take much of a break from my mgs. I'm hoping for some nice ones this year though. Quote | Post #862477 (7)

I've got a seedling I have, that tells me there may be many more to come! I don't want to grow any of my stock seed this year but volunteers will of course be nurtured. Perhaps I may have some interesting ones to show, who knows? Among a garden of weeds springs Mgs I look forward to summer!

That's nice, I'm glad for you. I'd be afraid to grow the special ones in your condition there too. Hope though you get some neat blooms too. I'm not too far from getting a few special mgs from way of Japan that someone was too nice to share with me. But from today only repeats. Quote | Post #863296 (11)

Good to hear Jon. Just for you, it should open tomorrow. I'm wondering if it'll be the same type as on their pictures. Quote | Post #866102 (15)

Well worth it Jon!! A big thank you! Reverse tube at that too. A close up of first bloom on this vine. Blushing Bride Edit to post another picture of Q962 that I missed seeing this morning. I guess I need to place them close together as I have them kind of scattered over the back yard. [Last edited May 9, 2012 1:39 PM CST] Quote | Post #866398 (17)
