Cold Spell Damages Flowers


Recently I posted an article about Sasanqua Camelias VS Japonica Camleias. In that post I wrote the following:

I prefer the Sasanqua over the Japonica. On the crystal coast the Japonica blooms in December and January. Sometimes our coastal winds and sudden cold spells burn the buds and blooms. At Thanksgiving the weather is warmer and the sasanqua is a show stopper. So even though the Japonica flowers are larger and fuller than the sasanqua, Japonica blooms can ruin quickly with a atypical cold spell.


Well, during the past two weeks low tempertures have damaged the Japonica Camelias blooms as you can see in the photos. Even though the Camelias at the retreat are very large and old growth the blooms have been hurt by the dips in the temperture. The buds show dark spots caused by the weather so I don't know how many flowers will open after this cold spell.


Until a few weeks ago there had been lots of rain and rather mild temperatures so the early blooms were huge this year and beautiful in color.
Every Christmas my mother would decorate the farmhouse with the Camelias. I've kept this tradition but not this year!

This might appear like a ridiculous point, however you are dealing
with a full ignoramous (me!) in these matters.
Do I comprehend correctly that a printer drum is a substitute to a toner cartridge yet with very
much greater yield? This does not appear to be explicit in your post if it
is the case. Please shed light on.
Kind regardsJim.

i have panasonic tx p42g20e model, and recently my
screen was hit with an object and is broken.
there's a line from top to bottom and several small ones surrounding the point of impact.to get it fixed or replaced with the supplier means paying almost as much as it has costed in the first place.
can i order the screen online and what do i have to search for?
