I guess people would like to see this happen again, so here we go. This is how it will work. Anyone can participate. There are no requirements as to posts or points. Everyone participating in this understands that this is done without expectation of anything in return. Anyone wanting to participate may post a wish list of ten items. It can be bulbs, seeds, cuttings, rhizomes, tubers, whatever. You may only post ten items. You can post them in random order or in order of priority. However you do it, please explain what you do in your post. Anyone who has an item on anyone's wish list can respond and offer to send it to them. The sender agrees to pay the postage. The hope is that the recipient will then turn around and do the same thing for someone else -- if they can. When someone replies to you offering to send you something, please amend your wish list to indicate that someone has offered to fulfill your wish. When you receive something from your wish list, amend the list again indicating that you received your wish from the person who sent it. Please post a thank you when you receive your wishes. It's just as much fun for us to see what others are getting and from whom they are getting them as it is to receive something oneself. Please be gracious and not greedy. Times are hard economically for most of us. Doing this is very generous of all who participate. It's fun and exciting. Last year, we created a photo album where people could post photos of the plants they received as they grew. I hope we can do that again. Once again, anyone can participate. If you can honor a wish, please address your reply post to the person whose wish you can honor. We will have to communicate addresses, etc. via e-mail for now. If you want to participate in this, please check your profile and make sure that you have checked the box to enable receipt of e-mails. Do not share personal information such as addresses, e-mails or phone numbers on the boards. Let the games begin! Santa's Wish List 2008 is now officially launched! **** EDITED BY LAVENDER2 ******** To help you find the wish lists I have added ** - ** to the titles of each members list. ALSO ~ You should now be able to edit your wish lists. UPDATE: I'm sorry. The system is not allowing us to change the edit rights in this forum.

Too late??

Is it too late for a wish?? I only have one..Morning Glory bush seeds. Any color. Not a vine..a BUSH.. lol. Luz shared a couple seeds with me one year and I couldn't wait, I planted it in the fall and it did good till frost. It didn't have a chance to bloom so I missed out on blooms and seeds!! My bad. Anyway..that's my wish.

You are welcome

I may be able to send you some cutting if the weather stays warm. Mine didn't bloom the first year but I got lots of blooms this year.

That would be wonderful, Dor

That would be wonderful, Dor ..I'd settle for seeds though, I'm not choosey. It's really cold here..down to the freezing point again tonight. I lost my tomato bush last night. As good as I thought I had it protected..it didn't help. Wonder if I can still fry those green frozen tomatoes..hehe.

GrannyRose

Thank you for all of the veggie seeds! They came in yesterdays mail. I cant wait for spring!
skbeal's picture

Veggies?

Wrennie, I've got some arugula seeds. If you would like them or can use them, let me know and I will put them in your ornament box. Arugula is wonderful to grow in cool weather, but Texas weather is too unpredictable for that. If you've got a sunny window, you could probably grow it inside. It doesn't grow tall, and you can harvest it in 25 days.

Susan,The Assistant Administrator, the Texas Yankee and the Texas Rangerette.

thanks

That would be nice. yummy!
grannyrose's picture

I hope

you have a huge garden Wrennie and you are welcome. Happy growing.
