I took the first photo while this apple was growing. Looked rather nice I think.

I took the other at harvest time. Two nice 8 pounders. Bathroom scale. I ain't gonna argue about how much they actually weighed. Three others got away without being weighed. We were hongry :)

Sumala,

Holy Cow sumala , those are unreal!

I am on my knees, can you spare a slip from one of those fruits so I can start that variety.

Its my firm belief that no matter how good you feed a cherry tomato, it will always be a cherry tomato size, never a beef steak. Same for a dachshund etc.... in other words, a good plant variety that is able to produce large fruit is a MUST if you want large fruit.

Pretty please!!!!

Sorry - Gotta' Brag

Thanks again everyone for letting me brag. I never thought it was possible to get an award on something that is so highly awarded. Mike I had trouble getting my g/h light levels down to grow my phals properly. High light plants are much easier for me than low light and cool growing plants. Stitz I deliberately left the FCC and CCE awards for you so feel free to thank me, profusely, when you win them :>) Harvey you're good. Those are indeed the parents. Judy out of flask would take 10-15 years to get this plant to this size so no, I bought it three years ago in a 5" pot. I have two Laelia out of flask seedlings going now and hope at my age I live long enough to see them bloom! Brooke

is mary the first gal on the second row left? geez i didnt even recognise her till you said her name. hey sheila, we play a very similar game on bluberry email group. we start out in a bus - or one time it was a wagon train- the person who lives at each designated 'stop' has to be our tour guide for the trip until we get to the next 'house' , taking us to sites along the way and entertaining us with new and exciting restuarants, etc. it is great for us people who cant travel because of obligations at home. we are planning another trip around the U.S. this winter. boy i wish my scanner worked . i have pix of the dollywood GT and the louisville GT. anyone remember that one? i thought that one was really good. g

Rina, I have a couple flowering plants, a osteospermum "soprano" that was too pretty to not buy, and a Sunsatia Lemon. Also I have some Zinger Hibiscus (yum), chinese forget-me-nots (not blooming yet), 2 moonflower vines, some lavender, basil and oregano. All those cuttings are indeed succulents. I have a few silver dollar and mini leaf jade cuttings, and 4 other gollum cuttings what came from a very large mama. Also I have several hens-n-chicks, a mystery plant (not sure if its sedum, echeveria, or... whatever lol), some "Baby Toes", some sedum stonecrop, 2 donkey tails that have fallen leaves propagating all over the place and of course the Hobbit, mini leaf and 2 gollums ( one small one large ). But enough about me... how about you, do u have a link to pics of your mama plants? If so I would love to see.... -Casie

Wow, Rocket is beautiful! Some of its leaves are notched. Have you ever tried the beneficial nematode treatment? Does it really have to be done every year? Rhodies in my yard really showing bites, have to do something very soon. Have you tried sticky stuff on the trunks to catch the weevils? What kind of sticky stuff works best? Hot air from California is supposed to come up this weekend, high 80s to low 90s they say. So the heat is on its way ... watering here. 38 degrees this morning.

Felix, I own no stock in Anheuser-Busch which in retrospect was a really stupid ommision by me.

Tony K, honestly, they were started from your typical commercially available pineapple tops. Most of my fruits do not look like this. Some of them look better but I can't remember where I left that darned camera sometimes :(

Sumala-you are officially invited to dine with us (mind you-I do not invite just 'anybody' to dinner.) Maybe some spicy shrimp on the BarBee and some roasted pinapple??? Of course, bring on the beer too! LOL those are amazing, my friend!
