Maggi

I have a good motto on my desk ( sorry only in german ) from M.Massara

"Habt Spaß dabei Eure Pflanzen zu kultivieren und vor allem keine Angst vor Experimenten denn bedenkt :
Ein Mensch der noch niemals eine pflanze verloren hat ist entweder ein Magier oder ein großartiger Lügner!"

Could you please translate it ?

Have fun growing your plants and especially don't be afraid to experiment.... a person who has never lost a plant is either a magician or a dreadful liar!

Hans, I agree with the first part..... and the last part..... but I'm not so sure about the experiments.... I think one experiment in killing those poor bulbs is enough! :-[

This is why I think it is better to grow from seed.... then I feel the plant has more choice!! ;D :D
