Hi Angelo,

Just wanted to let you know, the acorns I've collected to send you have
mysterious holes in them. Insect damage I imagine. I'm still looking for
good ones, (and it's still raining)!

I didn't know bauhinia can be taken internally. Can you give me any more
info on it?

Thanks, Happy Gardening,  Cindy in TX.
