Sorry I'll miss the garden stroll on Friday, but I'll be over sometime on Sunday to see if there's anything left.

Is this meeting going to happen? I have only seen three posts from the west coast members: Rhil , Ray & Bren. Very little chatter for a date that is rapidly approaching. :rolleyes:

I want to clear my calander to attend, but still waiting on a date. Sept 11,17 or 18:confused::confused::confused:.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone. My garden (an appitizer to Ricky's) is only 3 years old, but I'm making decent progress! I'm trying to get some more of my crotons in the ground this weekend. If you've been to Rick's, I'm about 3 minutes away. Directions are comming. I'll have some drinks (non-alch:() for everyone., the foods a little later. :D

Alcohol and food? Don't they go hand and hand with croton tours? I heard a little alcohol brings out the color in crotons.:) Definitely looking forward to visiting your yard.

Ricky,

That's generous of you to offer hosting another croton tour at your place. The only thing is, that weekend is the Sale at the Tampa Fairgrounds, of which the Croton Society has a booth to sell plants. Andrea and I already planned on going over with the Glocks. And I'm sure all the folks on the west coast plan on attending as well. So those dates I don't think will work. But, I look forward to looking at another time.

Jeff, Is the Sale at the Tampa Fairgrounds or is it The USF Fall Plant Sale at USF? The USF Fall Plant Sale is Oct 9&10.
