![]() WE HAVE A WINNER!! Well my wife sprang some Sunday afternoon plans on me so I have no choice but to announce the winner this morning. I would like to thank all who entered the contest. Your a great bunch! Hehe, get it...bunch! Anyway, the final count is a whopping 159 fingers!!! That's the largest bunch I've ever grown in my garden. So the winner of this contest is..........................................Cedardave, and to make up for my morning mishap Bencelest will get a free pup too!
Congrats Cedardave and Benny! Please pm me with your shipping info. Here it is as of this morning! ![]() And here is your pup! ![]() In the spirit of giving for the holidays I'm going to give away a Pisang Klotek pup and pay to ship it UPS overnight in the USA. You pay nothing. Members outside the USA will have to pay for the shipping of their choice. As an added bonus I'll send the winner some fruit from my plant when they are almost ripe! You decide what shipping service you want to use and pay for the shipping. The fruit is free! Here is the deal. I have another Pisang Klotek flowering. The first hand is visible today, 11-20-07 The last bunch never ripened due to a frost that killed all the leaves as the flower was emerging. Now for the rules: Try to guess how many fingers this bunch will have. One guess per member. The person who guesses the closest without going over wins. I will close the contest after the first male flowers appear on the bunch but I will give a few days notice for any late entries before closing the contest and announcing the final tally. Jarred (Mediahound) has offered to edit the post as members make guesses. Good luck to all and Happy Holidays, whatever it is you celebrate!! ![]() This is how it looked the first week of November. And the first hand as of this morning! 11-20-07 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 Karunasagar108 27 Marco 28 29 Kylie2X 30 31 32 33 dpren3275 34 35 36 Jason 37 Banana rican 38 39 the flying dutchman 40 41 42 Choconut 43 44 Cactus6103 45 46 chumleyrobert 47 Wamstick 48 Sewell0618 49 BrianCoconut 50 51 Robi 52 finn 53 54 55 Tropicman 56 Drturf 57 Zergas 58 jbclem 59 Lagniappe 60 Banana Bill 61 Kp1945 62 Tony O 63 Island Cassie 64 Tribeone 65 Klemmthamm 66 Wapsigal 67 Tropicalkid 68 john_ny 69 Iwabirds 70 Ethan 71 AllenF 72 Paj53 73 Ithaca isles 74 Buzzwinder 75 Rentman 76 Mskitty38583 77 Valerie@flower 78 AnnaJW 79 Pedi 80 Whatever 81 Tobi 82 Bgreen 83 Southlatrropical 84 Prettylady 85 Andy 86 Paolob44 87 Njoynit 88 Randy4ut 89 SteveW 90 Foye 91 Mark Hall 92 Harveyc 93 Pidge 94 buffy 95 STEELVIPER 96 miaella 97 Arachnid 98 Pietangadiego 99 Francesco 100 Xavierdic61887 101 Laughaha 102 103 Bigdog 104 bdmike 105 106 Natedogg1026 107 108 Bch Girl 109 Joes475 110 Floridafilly 111 112 Oxmyx 113 Babyblue11371 114 Modenacart 115 KenziePom 116 117 Mike 118 51st state 119 120 Greenie 121 Magicgreen 122 123 Jrozier 124 125 Taylor loves bananas 126 Bananimal - woof 127 128 Betsyann12 130 Hydrojeff 131 Puiu 132 egardener 133 Kerrin G 134 Paula 135 Inkcube 136 Socalrocker 137 138 Saltydad 139 140 141 Jane 142 Maesy 143 144 Mustang 145 146 147 148 Bonheur 149 150 Gadget 151 152 153 154 Tropicalvr 155 156 157 Cedardave 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 Bencelest 167 168 169 Kaysbelle 170 D & T 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 Kentgardener - one hundred and eighty 181 182 183 184 185 186 187 Nanaman 188 189 Coconut groove man 190 191 192 193 194 195 196 197 198 199 200 201 202 203 204 205 206 207 208 209 210 Florida 211 212 213 214 215 216 217 218 219 220 221 222 223 224 225 255+ Shopgirl2 Last edited by momoese : 12-09-2007 at 10:45 PM.
