This afternoon I had a visit from keith "tropical tom", it was great to have a rattle with fellow fanatic's!, we have met a few times previous but this was his first visit here, he very kindly bought me some strap leaf Takil & various hybrid tachy's also strap leaf plus some bit's to kickstart my propagation project although I've so much to learn on this side of things!, it's great to swap idea's & views. karl.

In my area people tend to grow a few plants as accessories and on the rare occassion I get to meet someone who really loves plants it's great to be able to talk and swap. To actually visit someone's garden would be a treat indeed.

It's nice to meet other members I have met:

And me

[miketropic]

For some reason I just don't think this is ever going to happen for me

[GREVILLE]

Don't take it so hard, Mike. It's an absolute pleasure to meet you without having to take out time to travel four thousand miles (Though I strongly suspect it would be an equal pleasure if I did )

[Yorkshire Kris]

And me

And how could I forget Kristen! ( The Mekong Giant is now two Mekong Giants)

A Brit in the backwoods..it would be equivalent to that episode of idiot abroad where he came over to America

[Dave Brown]

And me

Kris

And me

Kris

Hahaha ... he's forgiven

[Matcycas7]

I can't remember his name in this forum. He said some funny thing like seeing someone walking in the patio with some ugly face. Mr. Dave removed his comment. I laughed when I imagined that.

if only there was a like button on this

I have yet to meet any HTUK members but hope to do so in the near future

ps. Dave do you open your garden at all as I am not too far away and it would be an absolute pleasure to meet you and see your plants

[Kristen]

I'd love to see Dave's garden too. Private open day, entrance money towards running the forum perhaps? Just a thought.

I would be up for that!, not sure mrs B would be impressed by a mini invasion though! .karl.

UPDATE, this afternoon I met rick (1965), he came up from the Essex coast to buy my very rare butia caterinensis. I have reluctantly sold it as last year it took a small hit on a few very cold nights!!, it's now got decent frond's again & is growing like mad it's just I didn't want to risk the loss of such a rare specimen, again it was a pleasure to meet another member & not forget his wife!!. karl.
