Quote from walkinslow

Sorry, I don't think that would be such a good idea (unless the person who started the travelling flower requested it) because it would exclude all other players...

Well, of course, I wasn't suggesting doing it with someone else's flower and I would definitely give a good amount of time for people to "sign up" so I wouldn't exclude anyone who wanted to participate. However, even then, someone just signing up on the board will miss it after the pattern has been established - or someone not checking in for a while. But that's not to stop them from starting one on their own.

Quote from Clara

Yeah, that'd be an interesting project if it was carried out

Yeah, I thought so too, Clara. Thanks!

I think the way to do that would be sending the link to the people via pm so it couldn't get messed up, you know?

Yep, that's right. I've had a flower without having the seed or sprout - and it was so hard for me to find out what the seed looked like (Of course, if I had thought about it, I guess I could have used the Wiki! Duh. )

And now it's come to me again - and you know what I noticed? It came to me by way of your garden last time, Clara! Now, wouldn't that be something?! To try to get the list to be repetitive with the same names over and over the exact same way!

Vensus Fae, you are new - you will have the delight of the other yearly events that they have even if they don't add a new one! (But you are right - it would be awfully nice to have another new one!)

Just got back online after being away for a while. Nice conversation, guys.

Do either of you think you could do a better job than the ones submitted?

I think the one that disturbed me the most was the one from the Philippines where they added all the wind-blown hair - it looked grey and she's not that old!

I found this site and thought it was interesting - what do you guys think?

This is my list from my Compendium. I just wasn't sure if it was complete and was wondering if someone could help me figure it out. I have 62 different species. Is that all there are or am I missing some? I was just thinking if I never got a seed for a particular plant, I would never know it from the list - I mean, I don't think it shows up in your Compendium until after you get one, right?

There's only an hour difference from there to where I live, but my daughter moved down to Brazil in early June so she was there and they even played some games in her city!

Congratulations to Germany!

Yes, it was fun - I certainly enjoyed it! Thanks to the team for giving us this new event!!!

So it has! Here, let me give you another one!

Wow, that is really cool, LadyNova! I was duly impressed - although I couldn't understand a single word, I still liked seeing all those people and their flowers and outfits. Very neat!

If any of you plays Plants vs Zombies, you can give the snail (who is the helper in the Zen Garden) chocolate and he speeds up.

(OK, so it's a little off topic - how do you think I got over 1,000 posts? LOL)

Hi Mesme! I always like to hear of people's nicknames. You can call me Tru for short.

Quote from MiaSkywalker

Yes, I've been stocking up on them. The problem is that I miscalculated; I forgot to calculate in for the NEW Marvel ferns I would get this year, so I didn't have quite enough male ferns to breed all of my Marvels on this last run. Otherwise I would have dropped more into the garden for people to get.

I intend to stock up more male ferns over the coming year, although I'll probably be giving away some of my Marvels to newcomers in my welcome messages so I won't need to add TOO many more.

Very clever idea! I'll have to see how many Male Ferns I'll be needing!

Thank you, dustpuppy! You've been most helpful - all of you have! I got it yesterday - I should have come back and told everyone! Thanks for helping me out! You know the crazy thing? I probably couldn't do it again without help! lol

And now it's flying across the pond to sunny Maryland!

Traveling Tulips, Flying Fushias, what will we have next? Sailing Cyclamen?

Thanks, walksinslow! I made it to the treasure, but it says...

So, not sure what to do next...?

I think that might be a little hard for the owners/coders to do. Waiting a year to get something isn't all that bad. I was busy with RL last fall and on into Christmas, so I missed a lot that was going on around here at that time. I've had to wait and am still waiting until this fall and Christmas time to get a few things, so, even thought it's mostly the newbies, it's not just them. Anyone who has an account and then stops playing for a while would be in the same boat.

So... I think you just have to be patient.
