I got three of the new seeds this week. One "Rare", one
"Exotic" and one "Uncommon". When I log on to check the
plants, the first time I place the curser over the "Rare"
plant, it said "a bowl of potatoes". Today when I ran the
curser over the Rare plant, it said "a bowl of lettuce.
The other two plants give the correct names, "A vibrant
Exotic sapling" or "A vibrant Uncommon sapling".

Anyone else getting strange readings from their plants?

Hey Ice check your ICQ and authorize me. I need a little help from
your lockpicker with a stubborn paragon chest. :)

It's a known bug, they will return to their proper names when they
'pop' out of their bowls. (Or is it when the shift to the 'lettuce'
stage?)

I don't know if it's been scheduled for a fix off the top of my head.

I will be there if I can. Around here, one never knows what the
next hour will bring. 😛 I am on around midnight to 1am most
nights for 30 min. to an hour, if your up that late. (that's central time).

Possibly due to insomnia, but I start a new position at work on
that Monday, so I need to sleep. I also goto a computer class M-TH
until 8-8:30. Maybe, but doubtful...

Bonsai? Do you need wire and scissors to create them? Really should.

I will save you a seed from the three plants I have, when they are
finished. They are just 4 days old now, so it will be awhile.

LOL,,,,,,,, I hope my luck with the bonsai in UO is better than my luck
with them in RL. I had a greenhouse when I lived in CA, and could
not even keep them alive then.

Bonsai do not generate seeds, nor can they be crossed. Grow 'em and
set 'em to deco is the limit of what you can do.

Oops.

Now what they need is to have an effect. You "use" a bonsai or maybe just
have locked down within 1 tile of your char and you get a 10x bonus to
mediation or something. :)
