    Default Fred of little patience.

    I received a couple of hybrid catts from a local area grower back in Jan. or Feb. Since then I have been impatiently waiting for something to happen. All my catts were making wonderful new growth and roots but no blossoms and I was begining to wonder if it was ever going to happen. I made a pest of myself with other growers to see if I was doing something wrong or what. Finally!!! a Blc. Robert Ferguson 'Florida Sunset' happened. And several others are now coming into bud. I guess I'm just getting a lesson in patience. Cheers !
