My plants from Riona
Comments (12)Yep, on Facebook her page is titled "Orient Adenium-Adenium (Desert Rose)" with some Chinese characters after that. The shipping costs vary according to how many plants you order--for 3 to 4 plants the shipping charge is $28...this is for EMS, Express Mail Service. It seems like a lot but like has been noted here, they arrive within a week or so. Mine haven't been shipped yet, should be any day now. She has so many really nice flowers (with size of diameter noted in centimeters) that I had a very tough time narrowing my choices down to just 4!...See MoreNew babies from Siam adenium & Riona
Comments (8)Maybe as the plants settle down and mature, the blooms will alter somewhat to be nearer the illustrations although I do realise that some sellers use editing sites to alter them...naughty-naughty. I know this colour change happens with plumerias but I'm sure I've read that is also happens with DR's also? Still, very nice flowers though. Gill UK...See MoreI got it, now what do I do with it?

Comments (17)Hi Moonie, Here is the link to my root pruning... I sure hope this helps... Your tree is looking great to all of us Plumeria Lovers!!! Some of mine are so ugly, they are "cute.." : ) I have one tree "Pele" that looks like it went through a nuclear meltdown when the temps were Ahhh... very hot in the greenhouse last year.. Won't mention any names.. Cough, cough... He is still in the dog house for that one.. : ) I now have the temps under control.. This was the only one that looks bad.. So, your tree looks great to me too! : ) You are so right about our temps here.. We can have cool temps and then extreme heat. That is why you need to be careful to acclimate your trees in the spring. It sounds like you have a great handle on yours!! Good Luck and keep us posted!! Rachel, You are so kind to say.... Thank you!!! So nice to say those comments. I am still learning. We will always continue to search for all of the answers.. and hopefully apply what we learn and see the "rewards" from our beloved trees and plants. They tell us if we are doing a good job!! : ) Just remember its the learning climb to the top to get us to where we want to be.. I hope it takes me a long time to get there.. I always want to be on the climb up and keep learning... I hope everyone has a wonderful evening!!!

Comments (1)You can save the compost until spring without any loss of viability. Just keep it warm and damp in a ventilated container, an old worm bin would be perfect. In addition to storing the compost you will be able to save the baby worms as they hatch out....See More54641210d
