I have just had a beer and a coffee with Leatherback here in São Paulo.
Couldn't be more happy with the friends I have made on this forum, but LB was the first one to welcome me when I joined some years ago, and being always the nicest person, he had the trouble to bring me a pair of Zelkovas Serratas all the way down from Germany so... *I would STOP COMPLAINING* I couldn't find one around here. I was being a pain, I know.
Thanks a lot LB and enjoy yourself this week in summerish Brazil!
Good to have such a nice friend.
And they will certainly survive the trip.

:woohoo:
You got Zelkova in Brazil now!

Most of them had some roots left, did they

LB is a very generous person indeed. I got a big bag of lava, a stone and some cuttings from him for free earlier this year.
I still think he has a hidden agenda :evil:

Yes, indeed!
They were very well wrapped and moist, healthy white root tips and they are now buried in good old Brazilian soil-"Clicio's Special Mix" it's called here.
Thanks again!

I second that statement.

Comon guys, everyone who is not in it for the money will support others?
