Re: Palace Purple Coral Bell (Heuchera micrantha)
Thanks Marge - I believe I could live with 8 post a day. The more people
post the more I learn from them. If there was a lot of silliness going on,
well that's another thing, but I don't see any of that on SG. A little more
positive good humor would help the forum too. Members need activity, and
good things to come back to, that's what draws interest.
I saw some of the newer Heucheras at a retail site - very expensive with
shipping charges. I know you pay for what you get, but I wonder if some
members could post price comparisons from different retailers? Where they
saw the best prices including S&H = especially if they had a personal
experience using that retailer? I have seen some of this on SG before.
Regretfully, I never paid much attention, because I had no need for the info
then = darn it.
I'm gonna check the plant swap forums, in the forum list I posted
previously. Of course this is not the right time to be swapping plants, but
I can get prepared for when it get's cooler huh. Thanks again Marge, I hope
this post goes through, it's kinda big, even though I cut it down some.
Cheers = Cajun Joe
==================================
From Marge
Compared with some of the newer varieties, would have to rate it
about an 3 or so if 10 is high. One thing about it, it will take a
lot of abuse and keep on living, whereas some of the newer ones are a
tad more picky IMO. It has its uses and place and I wouldn't want to
be without it, but it has been superseded in the 'wow' department in
the past few years.
Re: the not more than 4 posts rule. Drives me nuts. I get stopped
all the time because I post in the wee hours and then if I try to
post in the next evening, I've exceeded my allotment for the date.
Really annoying when I'm behind and trying to catch up and there are
a bunch of threads I want to stick my oar in on. Think it's a really
dumb rule for a list with the traffic this one has. If the list were
generating 200 messages a day, could see the point, but it's not.
It is also the *only* list of the 18 or so I am on that has this
rule. DUMB! Of course it inhibits exchange. The least the list
could do is put the post up as soon as that particular 24 hours is
over. But, no, if you want it up, you have to resend it. Unless
I've spent a long time searching for stuff to post, I just forget it.
