Here is my 2000 post give away... yes, i know... a few posts over 2000, but i was waiting on seed that never arrived, and leaf cuttings to shoot... got sick of waiting... so this is it......

Eligible to members of one year or more....

ONE GUESS PER MEMBER.

The idea is that you have to guess what the item is to claim a seed pack. You are not to guess, if you don't want the prize.

Once you have successfully guessed the item, ( post item number and item name in this thread, and what chilli variety you want in your seed pack) , then you can PM me your address, and if there is anything you don't want, or

cant have due to legalities, just say so in the PM.

On offer is 8 prizes/seed packs that consist of the following...

All Seed... If the amount of seed is not specified, then its a small scoop...uncounted.

*Nelumbo nucifera ...pink lotus .3 seeds

*Silene capensis... (dream herb) 20 seeds 'prox

*Lophophora .w mixed, 15 seeds

*bridgesii x ss02 echinopsis cultivar

*Nicotina rustica

*Pink poppy,

*Red poppy, Danish flag

*Chilli.. choose one of....

Aribibi Gusano chilli ., 8 seeds, (2) 1 lot left)

Uville Grande red chilli, 8 seeds, (2 lots)

Brazillian Starfish chilli, 7 seeds, (4 lots ) all gone

*And a partridge in a pear tree.

Thanks to the members who originally gave me seed to grow, or gifted me the seed etc..

So what am i... and what do i do/what am i used for????......

Item #2 is a kitchen utensil used to evenly distribute heat from the burner to the pot, and avoid boil-overs.

I don't know. It redistributes heat more evenly so that different sized oxygen bubbles form in the liquid that you are cooking. DOnt really know the physics behind it. I think its called a saucepan minder.

I think #4 are for putting in the bottom of vases. You stab the flowers or whatever down onto them and they stick onto the spikes and stay standing upright?

Yes Anodyne .. #4 is a flower frog and is used for exactly that.

What chilli variety do you want in your pack?

As far as i know, the idea of a 'Pot Watcher' is so that it begins to rattle loudly as the liquid begins to boil, and you are made aware that the contents have almost boiled . That was to reduce it from boiling over. So, yeah, you were right... to avoid boil overs. It was when you said "saucepan minder" that clenched the deal,lol.

Sweet-as Amazonian, can I please grab the last pack of Brazilian Starfish. I love 'em raw and the Brazilian starfish looks like it would make an awesome looking garnish :)
