I've never dug up my daffodils, are you supposed to? If I was able, I'd come out and take some of yours you have to share. Here at my new house I have ONE single daffodil. lol I couldn't plant any last year because I had surgery in the fall and couldn't get out. This fall I want to plant lots of bulbs. Deer-proof ones, that is. Out here at the Lake they eat almost everything. =(

Pretty!

probably!

I guess our Kessler's got around! lol I recognize Horne and Conrad from our Kessler Family Tree book, although they married into the Kessler tree.

My local names are Kessler, Walborn, Reasinger, Frantz, Hoover, Salada

I'm a genealogist, and I also have a Facebook page for DuBois Pennsylvania Genealogy.

I'm so sorry, Dyna. (((hugs)))

Mine are bad too. =( My banana peppers don't look so hot either and my strawberries are teeny.

These are so cool to see! The Acme font looks 40's-ish to me.

Sorry for your loss, Jen, I am sad for you. Same for all the others, it's so hard losing a best buddy.

Finally found the map of the cemetery Mr. Lindsay had given me, and I want to make a copy of it and I'll be glad to share it with anyone who wants it. I'd like to attend the meeting too, if i can. My great grandparents, Axel and Josefina Swanson, and great great grandma Johanna Johnson are buried there.

My dad had something very odd happen to him once here near an old mine, pm me your number and I can have him contact you. He's not very computer savvy but will be really eager to share this with you. It's haunted him and a few of his buddies since it happened years ago.

My grandpa always called a bag a "poke" . The fridge was an "icebox", and a purse was a "pocketbook".

I would LOVE to see the inside of that gorgeous old house!

I was not quite four, but I can vaguely remember watching boats floating in the PT parking lot. That image stuck with me. That's all I remember, though.

Hmmm. How 'bout we all go down to SC and beat up snellma?! ;D

I'll email you and we can sort it out.

Thanks for that suggestion, Petee. Snickers, do you need it out right away?

I looked at your link, and it does look like datura inoxia. Thank you so much Petee and Lavender!

And I thank you for the Moonflowers! They are GORGEOUS!!!

I'll ask my dad, he has a truck we can use. I am sure he'll do it. Cool, thanks! I'll let you know what day is good for us, and you can tell me when is OK for you. Towards the end of the week may be best so my hubby has time to plant it. Thanks, Snicks.

Thanks. No pods yet, I don't think. I read that the flowers only open at night and that they only last that one night... mine are open all day and night, and have lasted several days so far. Maybe a certain species of moonflower? Also I image googled the seeds and they don't look like the ones shown in google? The balsam is different, I posted a pic on the other thread. I asked him to send me more seed, hopefully he will.

Nope, this is the actual plant at my cousin's house:

I got some seeds from Tipcat (i think it was her!) and she said they were moonflowers; I was reading up on them and it says that they bloom at night and then they die by morning. Mine are open all day and night and not dying off, which is great~ but I am curious, if they are not moonflowers, what are they? The flowers are about 5-6 inches wide. They smell heavenly and are so beautiful!!!

Eesh! I'll have to check with the hubs if he has a way to get it out. I'll let you know what he says tomorrow. Thanks!
