A 5$ Orchid I bought last year I wish I new the name of.Pic
Comments (25)Jane..Oh boy, I am almost afraid to look!! Thank you. Chris: You have got to be kidding me right? That is one of my favorite nurseries for many plants I can't get from others! I was just there last week and they were about to have a HUGE sale on all their out of flower orchids..I think it is happening now..They had quite a few set up on one table..You better hit that place as soon as today..lol $2 ? That is a much better deal than mine..You are so lucky to live close to that place..You should see their "corpse plant" there.. Nick..They must still look awsome..I tell you..The ones in my yard at my house in the Tropics grow the nicest and biggest, some fragrant flower you could ever see while the leaves look like garbage..lol. I once found a Tarantula coming out of one.. Thanks everyone..Happy Friday Mike...See MoreMoved roses last fall-could I have planted too deeply?
Comments (10)Do they show some growth? Leaves? Green cane? If so, then I don't think I would disturb them again. They are probably just building roots instead of top growth. That is good. If you lift them now, especially if you only "lift" them and do not replant, you will disturb the roots again and possibly introduce air pockets around some of the roots. Not good. If by fall you do not see growth, then next spring I would dig them up and replant. I have never had a problem with planting too deep....See Morei have been strugging with my gardens for the last few years...
Comments (9)I have Fibromyalgia and one of the problems that some people get with that is what they call "fog". My fog seems to be more like alzheimers and I get easily overwhelmed because it is almost impossible to focus on anything for long. I also forget the names of plants from one minute to the next. I found that making a list of everything I have helps me when I "loose" the name. Last winter I got a graph paper tablet and drew out my entire yard and the garden beds to scale. I did each quadrant of the yard on a seperate sheet of paper to allow room to write on it. In the spring I numbered my list and then put each plant on the graph paper in a circle that was sized to represent the size the plant will grow to. Then I put the plant number in the circle. It has made everything so much easier for me to keep track of. Now when I plant something I take the tag inside, write the plant on my list, give it a number, take out my graph paper and mark it on the drawing of my yard. This also helps when I go to the nursery because I can easily refer to my "map" and list and it keeps me on track of what sort of plants I need for specific areas. Otherwise I just pick things up with no idea of where I'm going to put them and I don't get overwhelmed with all the choices. It also makes it sooo much easier to explain to the sales clerk who is offering to help me find something. I can say I need something 2 ft. tall and blue to go next to this _______. Then the clerk can think about sun, water, soil etc. because he/she knows what is already growing where I plan to put the plant. Saves me from struggling with all those things. It takes some time to get it all on paper. I spent all winter at it last winter. It was worth the work. I don't have to feel embarassed when I go to open my mouth and nothing comes out, because I can't think at the moment. I feel much more organized and functional now too. If you suffer like I do from this disorder...you'll understand what a relief this little thing can be. Good luck! MeMo...See MoreMonster climbing spinach-not what I planted last year!
Comments (2)Red malabar spinach isn't a delicate vine. The stems get quite thick as do the leaves. The stems are a dark red, almost purple and the foliage has red veins. The ripe berries are a very dark purple. There's a green version called white malabar spinach which looks the same except the stems and foliage are green and the ripe berries are a whitish green. Both can get huge!...See Morevioletwest
