Hey,
Has anybody heard from Stan lately?
I E-mailed him a couple of days ago to place an order, still hadn't heard anything. I called the number on his website twice today and got the answering machine. I didn't leave a message, I wasn't at home when I called.
Anybody know if he is Ok or maybe on vacation?
Just wondering.
Darren

I corresponded w/ him this past Tuesday and he seems to be doing fine albeit very busy. He told me he hasn't had time to do much lately other than getting his fields ready for spring, planting veggies and working in the nursery. Hopefully he gets caught up so we all can hear from him again here on the Citrus Forum.

I heard from a reliable source that Stan was attacked by a mutant Flying Dragon. He was in the middle of grafting a new secret citrus variety to the Flying Dragon plant. The Flying Dragon which Stan thought was dormant quickly came to life. Impaled him with its vicious thorns and quickly devoured him. Locals say all that was left was his cowboy hat lying on the ground. Now I'm just going by hear say, but they say there is a new variety of Flying Dragon up there in Scranton, Sc that has amazing cowboy hat shaped leaves... Remember now that this is just hear say...
