At 8:02pm on April 22, 2008, Polly McDaniel said…: Sure. You can do it 1 of 2 ways:
Upload the pictures to your home page. that way anyone can see them or you can choose "just your friends" to see them.
Or you can e-mail them to me directly: Pollysgarden@charter.net. Can't wait! I love peonies the very best. Thank you.

At 6:45pm on April 28, 2008, Polly McDaniel said…: Hi Ricardo, Thank you very much for the CD today. Unfortunately, there is some sort of glitch and nothing was on it. Rats! And here I was so exicted to see your peonies. I am in a night class right now but we'll get together and get this straightened out real soon.

At 5:30pm on April 30, 2008, RICARDO FERNANDEZ said…: Hi Polly...I cant believe the saga of the CD!
Anyway everything is looking very nice at the farm and
the frost from last night did not affect the peonies.
I will be going to Asheville on Saturday to the Farmers Market and I will drop you off another CD ... see if we have better luck this time.
We are planning an Open Farm Day on Sunday 11th (Mother's Day) from 2:00 to 5:00 PM if you feel driving
to the country with your family you are invited!
Peonies will be at their prime.
Will be in touch... thanks...Ricardo

At 7:13pm on April 30, 2008, Polly McDaniel said…: Do you want me to announce the Open Farm Day in the paper? We can do that, you know...

At 5:42pm on May 2, 2008, RICARDO FERNANDEZ said…: Hi Polly,
I am doing an informal visit on Sunday 11th...just to walk around...talk flowers...see the beauty of intersectional peonies...have a glass of wine under the willow dock and walk the riverfront.
I have some friends,customers from the restaurant and few people very exited from the Garden Club of Waynesville that may join us...but is Mothers Day so I let a flexible and open schedule for people to come before we open to the public on Monday 12.
We can arrange a special invitation to GardenAsheville members thru your Web...from May 12th on ...you need to get your camera ready!
I will be dropping you our 2nd CD tomorrow...see if we have better luck this time. Have a great gardening weekend and I hope you can join us on Sunday 11th with your family.
Chau,
Ricardo

At 10:25am on May 6, 2008, Polly McDaniel said…: Ricardo, your peony pictures are amazing! I made a blog post on your behalf and will upload some of them to the main photos too. I am tied up this weekend but I personally can't WAIT to see them in person. Are you selling them at the City Market on Saturdays? Delete Comment

At 3:51pm on May 6, 2008, Polly McDaniel said…: Oh, I am SO all about organizing that, Ricardo. Great way for many of us to meet each other face to face, finally, too.
