By way of intro, this is a bit funny/unusual but I joined solely to post a pic of our Hoya?!?! Some close friends were visiting and I was showing them a slideshow of some pix I took w/ a new camera we bought a month ago - testing the macro feature as it were - and Maddie's jaw dropped when she saw that pic [we ended up giving her the other Hoya she was so fascinated w/ it.] My lovely wife is in the CA Native Plant Society so I don't get many "foreigners". I try to keep my odd tastes w/in the native realm. My passion is Koi the better of which are non native.
Welcome from New Orleans, home of lots of koi, me and other weird things. Glad to have you. Please post your pictures in the Members Gallery, so we can see.
Welcome Phredrum. I just saw that photo of your Hoya, it's wonderful. Hope you'll stick around, and invite your wife to join us as well, it sounds like you could both share lots of knowledge with us. :-D
Hi Phredrum and welcome to our fantastic concoction, the Stew I'd love if you would share some koi information with us sometime, that would be fantastic! We learn a lot here so stick around :
Ahhhhh now you're here we'll not let you go again Phredrum!! Before you know it you'll be finding these forums as addictive as we all do. I would love to see your other photographs as your Hoya one was terrific. WELCOME to GardenStew from Scotland. Really looking forward to getting to know you and (hopefully) your wife too. :-D
I don't have hoya or koi. I have a dog named Chance and a husband named DR. Welcome from Arizona. Dooley
