Can't see your photos Joe?! Seems a common "first post" experience. Did you delete your photos off Photobucket after posting this?

Wow!!! I can only imagine what he grew with that lamp...lol Mike It looked like the very same one I use to use that didn't do the job you describe that one as doing. I hope it continues to do well for your tree. Let me borrow one of them for my succulents, will you? Keep up with the feeding regimen. I am just wondering if your tree might need a rest such as mine do? Maybe it will throw off a ton of flowers for you. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Have you though about cutting back on Nitrogen? I have had to do that too. Hope you are having a great day today. Sweet, you are very welcome. This is a great place with a bunch of great people. Mike:-)

I haven't been there yet (boo!), but here's the info off his website: Vista, CA San Diego County Address: 1145 Gopher Canyon Road, Vista, CA 92084 Hours: Monday-Friday 8am-4pm, Saturday 10am-2pm, other times by prior appointment. No appointment required during regular business hours. This location is our primary growing facility, and contains all of larger sizes from 2 gal through 15-20 gal. We recommend dressing comfortably and wearing walking/hiking shoes to handle gravel and uneven terrain. NOTE: Appointments required on standard holidays, e.g., Labor Day, Memorial Day, etc.. I'm hoping to make it once before the end of the summer!

Hi Watergal! I used to run the nursery in the Philippines YEARS ago before I had to migrate here in US. This is how we think they are... first one is a Philodendron, second one is a 'curly bird's nest fern',third one is Philodendron 'Cardinal',fourth one is (I forgot already)like a Crinum as what my mother said, fifth is a Variegated Philodendron, sixth is 'Golden Sellum', seventh is what my mom calls Anthurium 'Renaissance' but she is not sure again today (hehehe). She just said that it could be another Philodendron. Bihai has ALWAYS been so helpful. My mother and I are so grateful for this forum and people who make this forum alive. Happy Gardening to all!

Current picture after I cut most of the pups and one twin off it. This 'Moonshine' has the green banding that I love. I have the other that is normal silver. Savant Fou, I had a 'Golden Hahnii' that refused to pup for many years and grew large and multi-leafed. Who knows why they do what they do? I know beheading it will produce pups if the stock survives. With Golden hahnii, who wants to cut! Every year I learn so much that I wonder how I got by the year before. Life with chemicals now.

Hello Joe:

Excellent plants all. But the Crassula ovata, if it were mine, I would give a severe whacking by about two thirds, and place in a bright location in a clay pot. Never saw a crested Stapelia...fascinating!

Those are absolutely beautiful!

That Euphorbia Pachypodioides looks like a small plumeria which makes me wonder why plumeria can't be in the succulent family.

Thanks a lot for sharing with us across the pond.

Mike:-)

Thanks for the great comments guys!
I'm fascinated by caudiciforms and have only really started collecting them within the last 6 months. They make all my other house plants look dull! Dracenas, monsteras etc. Boring!

@Kaktuskris

The crassula has been repotted in a clay pot now. It was left out on a wall outside someone's house and left to die! I rescued it and it's thriving. I like it how it is. I love the woody stems!
