Thanks for the input Cavan... I've learned to cope with my frustration
thanks to all the kind and sincere replies to my rant!!! Thanks everyone!
I really just needed to get rid of those plants in a hurry. One of those
things. I usually have a source for my clippings, Sometimes it's the trash
bin.... most times not.
There aren't many clubs in my local vicinty.... living in Los Angeles that
has always bewildered me somewhat. I would love to bring my plants into an
auction from time to time almost as much as I would enjoy purchasing plants
at an auction.... Maybe someday.
Thanks again for your reply.
