Jeremiah Harris (duh!)
Kirk Simpson
Kevin Brown

we're hoping Steve Allinger (BCK) can make it
We're expecting 20-30 members to show up from time to time, I'll be in a Red Nike Jacket if youre looking
 
Florida is a long commute so I do not think I will make-it. I would be interested in recieveing the news letter and joining (being an outof state member).

. And guess what I'll be bringing a few packets of?? There has got to be a least one person there I can trade these gemmae to..... I think I could (if I haven't already) supply most of Colorado with them. LOL
 
I'll trade, yay! Steve is coming, Ive been hoping i get to meet you sometime, cause everyone says what a nice guy you are, well today is the big day, and theres snow in the forecast, yay!

Hi Kirk,
Much as I'd like to bring my S. alabamensis, it's anything but astounding right now. It's entered dormancy, after a freeze nipped most of the ends of the pitchers. It is mostly pitcher nubs right now. I will bring my D. nitidula × ericksonae though. They are flowering and the rosettes look pretty nice. Might even be lucky and have a couple flowers open when I get there. That might be more than I should hope for though.

Famous?? I was thinking infamous or notorius

, but famous sounds better

. I'll go for famous.

That was a pretty good turn out, especially for the first meeting. I was figuring we be doing good to have 15 people show. So 28 was really good. I think that everybody had fun and the door prizes and silent auction were great. I think everyone left with a new plant or two. Thanks again for the S. 'Scarlet Belle' × 'Hummer's Giant' seed

Had a great time at the meeting and checking out Jeremiah's greenhouses. Thank for all the work you put into getting this first meeting set up Kirk!

Thanks Kirk

. Maybe this spring I'll do that. I have my window pretty well stuffed right now and am working on some way to make room in it for all the seeds I need to sow, so I'll have some plants to show/trade at the next meeting
