After googling, your are right chandelier plant is a common name for this kalachoe. I try to stay away from common names too, just because sometimes they bridge 2 or more completely different plants that have similar characteristics. Just look at the wikipedia page for "mock orange" for example. It lists 5 completely unrelated plants as possible "mock orange" plants. I have only 1 place with more light, a WSW window, with about 6 hours of direct per day, but because of the size of the pot and the way the window is, there is no way to put it there. I might could, if i rigged something in the window sill and had no other plants(LOL). And its been in the low 30 during the day here so outside isn't an option. I feel sure it has to be light related, plant is using almost no water, the new leave growth at the top is enlarged, and its losing some interior leaves. I could do short night treatment starting in the spring when it goes back outside, i have a box made and everything that i was using because there was a large streetlight right near the windows its been in.

We just are not a very GardenWeb pretrade bunch we just seem to show up and have fun. We have 18 RSVP's to the evite and about 10 more that I know are planning to come. It's just about 12 days until the swap. Here is the usual info and map link. Here is the basic outline for our swap. The swap usually starts at 9am sharp and we usually do door prizes and a potluck lunch around noon(or before if we get hungry!). It's usually all over by 1:30 depending on weather and how many people come. As for what to bring, the options are wide open. Plants of course, either divisions of your perennials, or cuttings you started or seeds you collected and labeled. Sometimes people bring whole plants they decided they didn't like anymore or didn't have room for. Also, if making new plants is not your thing, you can bring gardening related items, books, terra cotta pots, tools, etc... People are generally very generous and eager to make newbies feel welcome so there are no hard and fast rules about what you can bring. Also, most gardeners just don't want to take any of their own stuff back home so they are often not expecting an "even trade". Please do not take an item from someone's area without asking. A good idea is to bring an extra box to put under your table for the plants you have swapped and are taking home. Items under the tables are off limits. Also, we do have a donation jar if you want to help with the pavilion rental fee. There is also a list of things you may find useful to bring: camp chair or stool card table (there are no tables provided at the Buda pavilion) extra plant labels and marker extra plastic pots - usually someone needs these plastic bags for transporting goodies plastic nursery trays for transporting goodies gardening item to donate for door prize (optional) Your favorite food or drink for the potluck. Drinking water rain jacket (for some reason our swap usually causes a shower! Here is a link that might be useful: Buda City Park

Ron and I had a wonderful time. He commented that I might actually have come home with less than I took, which is exceptional!! Thank you Charlotte for a great get together. It was wonderful seeing everyone and I am very pleased with all the plants I have acquired. Bob, thank you for answering my plant identification questions. I can't wait til spring! I also think there was a nice diversity in the plants. Ally & Lindsey - I will be digging purple iris' this weekend and promise to get them in the mail by monday. Lindsay you should be getting mail today, it's the seeds you wanted. It was wonderful meeting new swappers as well as seeing people from the last swap. Thank you to everyone who came and hopefully we will see you all in the spring! Jani & Ron San Marcos & Round Rock
