Very impressed with Montray Davis's polls, so I would like to try one.

Please upload your flower photos for the next month (could be hellebores, snowdrops, daffs, any .. even winter jasmines..) ( could be more than one), but please name alp1, alp2 ... and we could all vote amongst ourselves. We can have a winner the end of the month. You may have many photos and many responses, but please order them after your username.

alp1 Hellebore

If this doesn't work, hope admin helps a bit. I don't really have any idea how to make it work!

We are allowed to comment, says alp! What a stunner. I can distinctly see the swans' heads. Beautiful!

alp, so you are going to have this be a nomination thread, then you will post a poll later?

:confused:

It's not going to be easy to keep editing a poll (and wouldn't be fair either, as the earlier entries are there for longer), so I'm not sure what you're asking for here... Are people voting on their favourite photo or their favourite flower? We already have the photo of the month competition for photos, but you are welcome to post your own polls if you like :)

Whoops!! I misread @alp's original post!!

I would like to clarify that the picture I posted is NOT my photo. I snitched it from an image search. I thought she had decided to have everyone nominate their favorite flower, then was going to post a poll later. :confused:

Ooops! I actually wanted to try out the poll and therefore had to do something. Hope you don't mind.

It doesn't matter even if it's not your photo. See Zigs' painting. So don't worry.

I will compile a list of participants and start the vote on 20th of this month. I was very impressed with @Montray Davis 's poll and he showed me the rope. I just wanted to try. I could hand-code the stuff, but couldn't get the result. Montray showed me how to do it. Any way, the list will be compiled on 20th. You could send me more photo, for example, you spring flower photos or drawings or sculpture... and I will list MaryMary1 Hyacinth and MaryMary2 cats with spring flowers ... etc!

Thank you. I think I would love to see your trees fruit. I must look out for M27 and stand next to them and pick fruits from the trees. I can still remember my eldest brother doing that in his mother-in-law's house. Those were the days when we had houses and gardens and fields.

I am super excited about my cocktail tree and can't wait to see all the luscious growth.

I also grafted an orange to my Kumquat as well as my Seedless Flame Grape to my Concord Grapes (and vice versa).

Everything seems to be going well. Yay!

Yeah, these days people would rather just shop their local grocery stores . They're missing out though.
