There's such a broad definition of what constitutes a senior in this area, I have as much problem as the cashiers in determining if I qualify or not. It can range from fifty to sixty five. I was pregnant when I was forty four, and I would have been highly insulted if I took my kindergartener into a burger joint and offered a senior discount. Yes, me too. I usually look to see if somebody slapped a senior discount on my slips. I seldom find one, but I also never get asked, either. I think a lot of it has to do with shopping where the clerks are older than me and supplementing their Social Security. rofl. They refer to anyone under medicare age as young man or lady. If it makes you feel any better, you know age is relative. To a high school kid working after class, anyone who has had the high risk dropped off their driver's license because they grew up is considered a geezer. I know when I was under twenty, I used to watch romantic films and think eeeewwwww if the leading men or ladies looked mature. Looking back on it, gosh they must have been maybe late thirtysomething?

Just wanted to update everyone on the plants in the tank. I've changed some of the plants around and now the plants in the tank are: Fittonia 'Red Anne' Sansevieria trifasciata ÂGolden Hahnii Baby rubber plant Ludisia discolor (Jewel orchid) Macodes petola (Jewel orchid)- I've researched this one and it says it only reaches 18 inches at the tallest) Philodendron ÂPrince of Orange Silver Philodendrum Goodyera pubescens (Downy Rattlesnake Orchid) Mounted Resurrection fern I have grown the Ludisia discolor for several years before putting it in the tank and it doesn't seem to be a tall growing orchid. Also, I've had the Macodes petola for about 2 years and it doesn't really seem to be one of the taller growing ones. The Philodendron 'Prince of Orange' is a hybrid that only gets 6 to 8 inches tall. I don't know if the baby rubber plant is the minima hybrid that stays small so that might have to be taken out if it grows too tall. Jewel orchids do like to remain slightly on the moist side. Actually, plants in my tank have to like soil that stays slightly moist because my soil in the tank always seems to remain on the slightly moist side so there really is no danger of my frog dehydrating. The jewel orchids have been in there for a month or two and are really thriving in the soil. I will try using the fruit flies that can't fly (they won't put larvae in the peat moss soil in the tank, will they). Another problem I had with the fruit flies was that the culture kept getting bad and killing the flies. The reason I don't want larvae getting in the soil is that last year I had to change the soil and wash off all the plants due to some baby recluse spiders showing up in the tank through infected plants (I now wash off any plants - roots and all - before they come into the tank) so I'm kind of wary of any critters living in the soil.

Oh, I am so sorry, it was a small hanging pot. I thought it was pretty, had some big daisies on the side, and that it would work nicely for a small African Violet type indoor plant. I thought the bubble wrap would be enough to protect it. I will have to find something else to send you to make up for the breakage. I hope you like the plants. The violets just appeared her last year, and have spread a bit. I had never had violets that were marked like that before with the dark purple veining on white flowers. Again, my apologies, I thought my packing was sufficient. You know I had even contemplated looking up your address on google maps, and dropping it at your doorstep. I guess I should have done that.
