good news!!!!

like  my beauty  trumpet - she is not doing well since my neighbour told her, she claims acid soil previously she was very satisfied plant

I wanted to sow you some pics, but the bucket is not working so.................

Erika,

You do know that you can upload pictures directly to here, don't you?  There is no need to use another hosting site.

[Arykana]

 no, i  did not know it 

[Paul T]

It's much easier than having to host them elsewhere.  I can't find the detailed instructions at the moment, but I've asked Maggi if she can send me a pointer to the topic that we can send to you or post here.

Basically, when you're posting a reply, down to the left of the bottom of the box you're typing in there is an "Additional Options....", which when you click on it opens up an area that you can add pictures.  You can add up to 10 pictures to the message, each of which can be up to 500K in size for each picture.  You click on 'Browse' to choose the file you want to upload, and if there are more you want to upload you click on 'More Attachments' to the right of the Browse button.

I doubt that is enough information, but you can have an experiment while awaiting the link from Our Lady and Mistress (feminine version of Our Lord and Master  ) Maggi. 

Uploading them here means that if the external host is down or running slow then everything can be viewed fine here.  I find that a lot of the external pics can run slow at times and take a while to show, so I have only ever posted pics uploaded directly to here, never from anywhere else.   

I hope this is of some vague help, but hopefully a link to the instructions will be much more instructive. 

And I love that double pinky apricot Lilium.  Beautiful!

Erika,

I've just PMed you a couple of links with lots of information.  Our Lady and Mistress came through in record time as usual. 

[Maggi Young]

Erika,
 I'm emailing you too!

[Maggi Young]

Erika, my email to you failed, so have sent Personal message but some directions may not show in that format!
  Contact me if you need help!

Ray,

Photo's are difficult for me this year; maybe next season. Yours are lovely though. I especially liked the Tango - Sims' seed?

[Ray]

Hi Rob,good to hear from you,pity we wont be seeing any pics from you as it is good to see what other people are growing.The seed came from either Sims or Francom,not very good at keeping records.bye Ray

[fermi de Sousa]

Ray,
your Asiatics with the dark splashes in the centre are quite amazing!
Do you know the breeding?
cheers
fermi

[Ray]

Hi Fermi,as I said my record keeping is not the best,but will do some homework and see what I can find.bye Ray

[Ray]

Hi Fermi,the breeding of the Asiatics is either of the following

Brauner Bar x Dot.com    or Miss Alice x Dot.com.
Dot.com looks like pic 0536.

Hi Rob all these seedlings have come from Sims seed.
bye Ray

The dark centred one is spectacular, as I mentioned when you posted it.  Such an unusual colour arrangement.  A big congratulations for that one, and the others too.
