Dude, don't leave me hanging like that. I demand, nay, ask nicely that you explain yourself. Lol.

I hope it's it a bad thing. I admit I'm taking a huge risk with this com pot.

Well, it will probably be next spring when you all find out. XD

Well all I can say is that when you finally get some blooms, you will love it! I saw an enormous one at a show last fall, and the fragrance is just fantastic! I want to get one, but the issue is space... I admire you for getting a compot! I wouldn't have the patience to start that small. 2 years from blooming is the max for me if I get one.

Dunno what's up with Cody and his cryptic comments??

Ok, I'll stop teasing. I have/had an opportunity to order some things from Peter, and this is one of his compots that I wanted! But, that opportunity won't come til spring, now.

Haha, you bet!!! XD This compot, as well as the (gigantea x corningiana), which I also wanted were sold while the planning was going on, so I asked Peter if he will let me pay for the compots I want to reserve them for spring, which means four or five might be unavailable soon! WOOP WOOP!!! But I am greatful for the pollen!

Oh, the Memoria Margarete Buchholz flask? Strangely that was the one I bought as well... They are all doing quite well. I've almost got a few that need to be potted into singles.

Yep, I'm officially jealous!!!! When I saw that two had been sold, I almost cried thinking it was the one I want the most! (which I fear to name lest someone buy it!)
