I must not have done the idea thing right. It didn't show up anywhere and no acorn

Did you click on submit? If you didn't do that it will still be there waiting for you to work on it more, or click on submit. It wouldn't just disappear.
Once you submit it you won't get acorns until it is actually published on ATP. You will automatically receive acorns when it shows up on the home page.
If you are not sure about it you can tree mail Dave or Trish and ask them if they received it.

Thanks! I think it worked

Just wanted to share the progress pictures. Even though this one was eaten by a rabbit, it still did as much damage to the semp.

The center was eaten down and only a few large damaged outside leaves remained. In April it had already started to grow back.


Early May - looking better


Early June - amazing! You'd never know what had happened to it unless you looked closely at the leaf tips, where a tiny bit of damage is still visible. This is 'Grammens', by the way.

Semps are just about the most amazingly tough plants. Wonderful progression of photos Chris. I am so tickled that you did the photo history.

What a pretty Semp is 'Grammens'. So glad it came back for you.

I have been using both the Plantskydd and some of their granuals I found at a local nursery and
it seems it really does keep the little critters away.

I was actually surprised that it came back. It was pretty destroyed.

The rabbits got it before I put the Plantskydd out, Marilyn. Next year I'll do it sooner! It does work!

That looks great!! (I have a grammens also, and its a beauty!) Glad yours survived and recovered!

Strangely the rabbit only ate of out of the (small) colony. It must not have tasted very good!
