I'm a rare plant hoarder so when I sell off my excess I usually spend the profits on coins to add to my collection

Nice collection. Ours are either in the garden under the weeds, or in pots scattered around the place and desperately short of water. A greenhouse would be nice to have.

I have to build another greenhouse as I am branching out into different types of plants so if it wasn't out of control by now it
will be very soon

Stevo, how to you stop the wind from ripping the plastic off your greenhouse? I must have put 200 bricks on mine and the wind still took it!

That looks like shadecloth on the side.

Mine is shadecloth which is nailed down but the mine is up against the house so minimal wind.Your plastic is catching the wind so maybe some wooden strips on the outside of the greenhouse secured to any uprights or horizontal supports.You could even roll the plastic on the bottom around a broomstick or similar and stake it down with steel pins into the ground

And cut some flaps in it too, like they do on banners.

I apparently, did hoard my old clothes until this week-end
which the daughter who has been visiting this week and has made me start to clear out resulting to a huge bin of chuckouts and that is just the first wardrobe
but honey, just because I haven't worn it for 15 years doesn't mean I have to throw it away does it?

well, nothing much else
maybe flower vases
got some barbie dolls too  

wine - I have one special bottle 1987 red
my first boy was born that year
don't know if you can still drink it now?

Robbie that one is a Licuala Cordata from Borneo.It's one of the most expensive palms available.A 1-2 leaf seedling will cost you $50 if you can find one.I have a couple of larger seedlings but I'm waiting for that particular one to flower.The last time I bought 100 seeds for $3 each only 2 germinated which is not uncommon hence the high seedling price

A wise person knows there is something to learn from everyone.
