Just checking in. Internet is finally working at the new house, and so are the contractor's workers! I got about 6 fig trees in ground with many to go, and a lot of cuttings packed in some box somewhere... Spray paint is deadly, well hopefully not as deadly as Round-up, but my Panachee suffered tremendously with that black wrought iron paint spray....... Crossing fingers it will make it. Stupid idiot contractors are careless and didn't cover plant life. They just spray away.......... And we were at the other house and didn't know. Been so busy it's crazy! Miss the forum, so please cut me some slack. I'll be back in a month or two. So much to do... Moving is no picnic! Thanks to all who have emailed me. Sorry I can't respond to all, but everything is good. I had a taste of one ripe VDB breba at the old house this week, and JD is moving it here on the moving truck today... Little stinker got it's roots out of the pot and into the ground, so he will shock it, but the deed must be done. It needs in-ground here at the new house. You all seem just fine! I miss you!

Welcome back....I too had to move one that had roots out of the pot....made sure I had plenty of the dirt and moved it to a much bigger pot, wet it real good and put it in the shade....never missed a beat. With regards to your moving, as the proctologist said, "This too shall pass"..... __________________ Alan _____________________________ Zone 9 - Central Florida Wish List: Panache, Bourjosotte Gris, Raspberry Latte, Petite Negri, Black Maderia, Cajun Honey
