I received a call at work... is somebody from TX sending you something?  Well yes!!  I raced home to find a beautiful treasure trove from Ms. Javajunkie in my refrigerator. I am so, so happy and excited. Your generosity completely blows me away.

Now there is some serious planning to do. Going to hatch me some pretty figgies... to be continued


Thank you, thank you, thank you Ms. Javajunkie for your kindness. I really appreciate it.

How'd you get those cuttings into her refrigerator before she got home?

My practice run with cuttings from my unknown Celeste was a giant bomb.

I was worried to mess up the beautiful refrigerator cuttings from Ms.Javajunkie.

I did not remember that I took a chance with two of Ms.Javajunkies stick donations, forgot all about them and looked at the sharpie writing on it... 

Black Greek took and has roots and the tiny leaves on it.
GMdiLipari has funky ripples n dots no roots no leaves. So I put her back in the mix.
The Eversweet Pomegranate sticklet, which I would not have bet a $ on, has little leaves.
... make a long story short.

Out with my Celeste-do-nothings and potting a new batch of 8 refrigerator cuttings.
In a few weeks I will do the rest batch. Amended the MG seed potting soil with perlite and now also with a bag of Orchid medium. Maybe in the morning I'll take some pictures.
I put them outside in the dark well moistened with a little good night prayer,    :-)!

Dennis, I am in the middle of nowhere between Clemmons/Lexington/WS where the neighbors keep donkeys to keep the coyotes away from their livestock.
A year ago a monkey got away from a research facility and he did good out here for a few weeks 'til a little girl ratted on him, because he was bunking in her play house.
