Cindy, Your Exotic Star is beautiful..one of my favorites. Last year I had 3 stalks and a total of 12 flowers and nothing took on any of them, selfs included..not a one! This year I've only had 1 stalk so far with 3 flowers and I put papilio on one something else on the second and the third I selfed. I now have a huge selfed pod that is just about to ripen..so you never know..so try one self and anything on the other flowers hopefully, luck will be with you. And, Xuan, I did have plenty of pollen on my 3 flowers this year and I looked at the pictures from last year and it appears that there was plenty of pollen then too. Just may be an off year for your pollen production, but it really doesn't take much to pollenate a flower, just a little dab will do it.. ;-) Donna

Thanks guys, I'm getting excited just waiting for the weather to get warmer. dave in nova: I spray down all the plants in my grow area 2-3 times a week, it was pretty bad before, especially on my papaya trees. yaslan: my cuttings consist of several bagged branches from Hawaii (these obviously had no leaves), several others I bought locally that were already in 1-gallon pots, some of those had a few leaves, the rest only cuttings staked in the pots. The bare Hawaii branches took between 4-6 weeks to show what you see in the last photo. The top photo is of a Y-shaped 36" cuttings I cut from my aunt's house. She doesn't know what cultivar it is, hopefully somebody on this forum can tell me. This Y cutting took about 9 weeks to be what it is now. The middle photo is of a cutting that came in a 1-gallon pot, had about 4 small leaves when I bought it, 6 weeks later, it is what you see now. For soil, I use Sta-Green All Purpose potting mix with Aqua-Guard from Lowe's (not the kind with Moisture Max), I mix in anywhere from 1/4 to 1/3 perlite. That's it. The main key is temperature. All my plants are under a grow light in a home made enclosure in the garage. I think I could have put them all inside the house and achieve the same results, but my wife would nag me to death, so for domestic peace I relocated the plants to the garage.

Thank you both for the response. If this issue is resolved without litigation, which I seriously doubt, it will be through the efforts of DCS, FP. We did notify Am Ex. So we do have recourse there. I just feel like such an idiot for not doing a more thorough job of investigating this company before trusting them with an order. I hope no one else on this forum has to go through this. If you do find yourself in this stressful place, please be advised that many states, like ours, allows triple damages awarded to the consumer. And court cost can also be awarded. Unscrupulous vendors need to be drummed off the Internet.

Hi dorry, You do have to fill out the form to find your nearest dealer then the designer/store can order for you. Minimum is 1/4 yard and they will send free sample swatches. I love their depth of product! I stumbled on the site a few years ago looking for fabric to create a wall in a showroom. They sent me a big black canvas tote with their logo on it that I use to lug books back and forth to the library so I think of them every couple of weeks (their advertising worked - on me at least!) Anyway, to get prices just find out who carries them closest to you. They can give you prices and order whatever you want. They are mid priced. deedee

Wondeful. Cool. Fantastic, I can't come up with enough words. What a blessing in disguise. Do you put on all the jewelry before you open/after closing? I always did. Too much fun and I couldn't believe I was getting paid to play with jewelry. Enjoy yourself tremendously.

This is great news! What exactly does a jewelry coordinator do? I would assume that it means that you coordinate the displays and design the display windows.

Anyway, thanks for sharing the wonderful news with us!

Thanks everyone!

I started out in mens apparel, then was asked to move to ladies apparel.
Really enjoyed how intetesting it all was!
From time to time I was asked to go to other stores to help out. That was also very intetesting!
For the past 2 weeks I've been working on a special project here at my own store and if I may toot my own horn...well I dazzled them with my manangement skills. I was able to manage several people doing several micro projects. The big compliment was when we learned we were ahead of schedule...the district manager said I ran a well oiled machine!

I was thrilled to hear it!
I've gotta say they really do give good encouraging
feedback!

I took the management test and had a perfect score so I was promoted!

As for my duties, I will check in the jewelry, sell the jewelry and keep track of custom orders. I will basically manage the team, do schedules, track sales, do promotions and go to all management events!

Im up for it all!

Nah, im not missing the headaches and aggrevation of my old supermarket job....nope not at all!

It is my hope to dip my toe into every department eventually!

Cheers!
