Your posts are always funny and delightful, and a pleasure to read.
I collect Texas wildflower seeds here and there, and do trade plants and rose cuttings with other gardeners. If you are interested in gardening, there is a neat site:
www.gardenweb.com and they are very nice people, they even have a trade forum.
My grandfather, a wonderful man who passed away some years ago, I miss him, taught me to garden. I would be happy to share what I know with you, as well as cuttings, extra plants, and seeds.
