Hello from Florida
« on: September 08, 2015, 03:11:52 PM »

Hi. My name's David and I live in Florida. I run a small garden design and installation business and used to work in the Horticulture Department at the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens here in town. I've been collecting and growing plants since I was a little kid, and as my life interests change so do my interests in plants. I used to grow a lot of orchids; now I do mostly entheogens and other sacred plants, edibles, bamboos and fragrant plants. I am also seriously into Florida native plants; a lot of what I try to do with my business is reclaim lawns back to specific native habitats.

I had the pleasure twice this year so far of getting together with a swell group of people from this forum, who are all quite enamored with the place, and so am finally posting although I signed up over six months ago.

I am a very regular poster on the Aya boards, and am weary of how much time I will now be spending here as well...  ::)

Looking forward to whatever comes of it.

Hey David,

Welcome to STS!  I bet Bach will consider this a success getting you posting.  :P 8)

It was great getting to meet and spend time with you recently, and I'm looking forward to next time.

Peace,
Frog

Hey Hey!

The sleeping dog awakes! Good to (finally) have you here!

Now that you've cracked the door open, shown a chink in your armor, all we need now is a few more posts so we can PM you. And then the floodgates will open...

I know what you're afraid of.

 ;D

EDIT: You got your first Karma point just for showing up!

There was a young lass from Madras
Who had a magnificent ass
It was not round and pink
as you might think
But had ears and a tail, and ate grass.
