Re: Oh Christmas Tree
George,
I planted quite a few of the seeds you gave me. I have all my hills marked,
but they are with a small marker. I will look today and see how they are
doing and let you know. I can tell you, I have a very nice patch this year.
Hoping for something big to bring to Nekoosa.
