Jeff Searle 1,207 Report post Posted January 6, 2008 Tad, Here's a few more id's for you. #56....Schubertii #63.....Rising Sun (a very nice one !) #78....Purple Prince #94....Eburnum (croton) Nice tour so far. Just a thought, maybe your dad could jump in and give us all a little piece of history about himself and how he got started. (And....the troubles with raising you as a child.. ) Thanks, Jeff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
