Re: Auction
Chick,
You are criticizing, but that is OK. Some of us have ulterior motives here.
I got to thinking that by donating a few TC plants, with a little added
shipping cost, I have generated interest in some of our plants. Inexpensive
advertising I would think. It may even motivate some people to visit our
web site. I noticed that pictures of two of our introductions were posted
to hostapix today -- pictures I did not even have. Frankly, I do not care
what they do with the money, but we do link to the Hosta Library for most of
our pictures, so I do owe them support. My only reservation is that too
many plants may dilute the prices paid for each -- we will see.
So stop being a spoiled sport and join the enthusiasm! Remember this is the
season of BA! Humbug!
