Conifer50, good to hear your yellow Table mnt pines have survived. The most aromatic conifers I have are Green Giant arborvitaes and Table mnt pines. I can detect them just by getting downwind, even in cold weather. TMP aroma has a hint of danger to it, tho -- like "OK to smell, but don't eat!"

Plants like this have shown up in stores where I live (SW Florida) under the name "Aloe Pinto," the pinto part apparently being a reference to the "speckles" on the plant, like the markings on a pinto. I found a couple of references to it online and so I presumed it was an Aloe and treated it like that. But it has not done well with too much sun. Mine does much better with a little direct morning sun and then bright but indirect light the rest of the day. So, my guess is part Gasteria.

What a great post/spring reminder! Yes, birds and gardens go hand in hand. Cudo to those who hand feed baby birds. Its work! I have parrots. When I was in college in AZ, I adopted a baby Severe Macaw that was still being fed formula. My dh traded off syringe feeding. He did ut while I was in class. We had to check the temperature of the formula so it didnt burn the crop. My Yellow Naped Amazon was a few yrs old when we got him, luckily we didnt have to syringe feed him. He had been abused from the previous owner. He had lived on a large perch his whole life and his feet had contractures. He is a great joy and is quite a character. He has his quirks and we respect that. Lordy, I should have never let him watch South Park (my oldest son's doing when an older teenager)! That's all I can say on here about his language but he is hysterical. He speaks fluent Spanish and English, and likes to imitate animal noises, especially pigs lol. He likes to call the cats..here kityy kitty, then bite them and laugh wickedly. Any new cat learns quickly who the boss is and becomes wise to his calling. He loves my youngest son the most, who has many learning disabilities and they have a very strong bond. We had a Conure, lovebirds, cockatiels, parakeets, and finches in the past.

Okay can’t remember the name but it would have come from Forsyth fabrics in Atlanta or Lewis and Sharon Fabrics. Some of the people who Are working there have been there forever. Maybe you Can call them explain the situation and send a picture. I think it was Forsyth Fabrics for some reason. Good luck.
