This is a little awkward, but I have to do it anyway.
I received a PM from Jimj, he told me that my previous post was very offensive.
First, I would like to thank him for using the PM system instead of doing it in public. Many of us would not have the discretion to handle it this way.
Second, I want to publicly apologise for offending him with my post. I was just trying to help, but obviously I failed miserably.
I did respond to him with PM as well, but I feel that I need to make a public apology, since we are all responsible for the words we use on a forum, and if we offend someone, must live with the consequences.
Sincerely,
Attila
P.M: Jimj, I have a large collection of satsukis, and there is a big satsuki nursery 10 blocks' from my house (Nuccio's azalea nursery). I have about 30 different varieties, but I don't think I have the one you requested. If I did, I would be willing to part with it and send it to you. But if Nuccio's carries a Shinnyo -No-Tsuki, I would like to buy one and mail it to you - if you live in the US. If they don't carry this variety, I am sure they have something very similar - they may have over 100 different varieties of satsuki. Let me know if that is acceptable to you.
