I would like the Telsoma cordata vine. I've had it on my list for a lot of years. Please email me (through 'my page') and I'm sure I have something you will want. What size plant is your vine?

Alpharetta, I decided to take a wild shot at this . . . Is this plant also known as a Tonkin Jasmine? The only plant perhaps vaguely like this that I have any familiarity with is a Plumeria that I have owned and cared for over nearly 10 years - almost our only house plant (ventures outdoors every Summer). Flora Exotica has what they identify as "Tonkin Jasmine, Tonkin Creeper, Pakalana vine, Telosoma, Thien Ly." This company is in Montreal, Quebec but they claim that, "we ship everywhere in North America and around the world." Really, I don't know if this is what you are looking for but for want of a more knowledgeable responder . . . here's wishing you the best of luck.

Oooh, Lowe's loves me for sure. I cleaned up their rack... got all the orchids they have on sale... I searched and searched, there were only 6 left... I wish I was there earlier. Yeap, $2.5 each total $15+tax. The pink Encyclia has chocolate scent, the Maxillara has coconut scent, the B. nodas... well, we all know its scent is wonderful but none of us has smelled it with our own nose...I actually have one already, but this one is hybrid called "little star" so it might smell a little different. Don't know the scent of the spotted Catt. yet, or it is scented or not. But I am sure the Dancing lady and Wildcat aren't. This summer when I visited a local orchid farm and went shopping spree, I regret left without getting the Maxillara. It was in my next year's plant list, I guess the X'mas comes early now...LOL. Here is the Maxi. picture after I report it. I think a brown colored oriental style pot will look good. I don't have one on hand, so just potted it into a oriental style orchid pot I have at that moment. BTW Temperature here was down to 35 last night and will be 32 tonight. Are you guys still toasted warm there?

Ilima/scientific name = sida fallax. Native to Hawaii. Geez I was just asking for some seeds in the seed exchange. I'm looking for the Orange ones. Do a google search, find the site about the UH Teacher (http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/carr/) (http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/carr/images/sid_fal.jpg) (http://www.botany.hawaii.edu/faculty/carr/160webindex.htm) and it will tell you where they are specifically at UH. I wish you could send me some seeds... Soon so I can start them outside in the summer heat, 'E olu olu 'oe. Aloha No ! I tried emailing the teacher, but so far no answer. I used to live in Hawaii Kai at the Mauna Luan but now I live here in Dearborn Michigan. Graduated from UH in '78. Looks like I'll be here in the Hawaiian forums now too. I have 4 Plumi's growing on my deck here during the summer months, the ilima and pikake would be all that I need. Its embarassing that I don't know the other names. I should because my degree from UH is Horticulture, but that was 25 years ago. Sorry. Keep in touch send me an email about the seeds. Here is a link that might be useful: Just Say Aloha!
