Bud, the Turnpike is bad every day of the week during commuting hours and is a parking lot on holiday travel days.
Your Benisuzume must be much older than mine. I got it last November as a single growth and its barely grown. And, I said before, the shape of your leaves are so pretty. The leaves on mine are a lot thinner.
Where did you purchase yours, Bud?

Bud that would be so nice of you. If you do take off some keikis for me please let me know if I can do something in return. I currently have nothing to trade but I can keep some keikis of some of my phals for you. Let me know if you're interested. Of course I can take care of shipping too.

no worries Ryan...Glen Gary from Florida gave me 6 orchids...just by commenting that I was scared to grow Paphs...
I want you tohave some keiki of this plant since you like it so much...I know you will grow it well and give it the loving care...
I was brought up to share and give something of myself without expecting anything in return because it gives meaning to my life...that is what makes us civilized.
someday you will also give a plant to someone here and that is just awesome!

Well said, Bud. And I agree. My wanting I do something in return is in the same spirit as you wanting to send keikis. Gardeners are some of the most giving individuals!
