talked to wild bill today. he had a terrible accident and had his leg partly crushed between a folk lift and the back of his truck.

bill spent the last few weeks in the hospital but in time is expected to make a good recovery.

he wont grow this year and for that the hobby is at a loss.

bill asked me to thank everyone for the kind get well wishes

He might say he's not growing, but I bet he'll find a way to plant and grow something. Linda, you're going to have to pick up the slack... :)

Best wishes on your recovery Bill. It should be enjoyable seeing how your seeds do this year. I'm guessing there will be quite a few growers with Rodonis plants in their patch.
