Some quick questions about Neps that I’ve never seen addressed in CP books nor found on the Net…….

Hey guys. It froze last night. My banana tree, philodendron, orchids, D. adelae, B. filifolia, and all of my sarracenia froze last night. It was SO nice yesterday who knew it would freeze?

Last year or so, I used to be Slurm, but I was inactive for a while so my account got pruned.
I am back as the great cornholio because I am a fan of beavis and butthead.
If anyone has little kids or is a closed disney watcher, you can see me on a short segment called "show your stuff" that was...
