Jamie, gorgeous plants. Thistledown has some real beautys. I ended up ordering another batch, but less than the first order. He even sent a freebie. Don't forget to leave feedback on Gardenwatchdog.com. He's a really nice guy, very generous, and honest. Your hoyas are good-looking, too. All your plants are. The first looks like a variegated Haworthia. I bought a similar plant on Ebay, same colors, thinner leaves, it's called Aloe 'wansley' variegated..very tiny. I'll have to snap pics. Thanks for turning me on to Thistledown. Let me know how your Fukien Tea works out. HD usually has them available. Do you know if it's evergreen or decidious? I love your CC..It's a true red. Walmart here I come. lol. Actually, I'd like a variegated CC, but they're hard to find. One seller on Ebay is selling a variegated 'cutting' for, are you ready? 49.99!! Right, I'll take 10, lol. Kim, why does Pilea freak out your b/f??? lol..that's hysterical. I'd understand if it was a 'Man-Eating-Plant,' lol, but a Pilea??? I just bought a variegated Euphorbia 'paddle plant.' The green are okay, but this guy is veryyyy pretty. Toni

Welcome, Dena along with Kitiera. It is so nice to have new peoplw join out madness. Yes, we are absolutely mad, whacko, lonney for gardening. Sometimes I think we live in dirt and grow only when watered. Some of us grow when even neglected. You have every right to be proud of your children. Sounds like you were a major influence in their lives. One of our mottos around here is "Carpe Car Kete" Grab those car keys and go to where the plants and friends are. I am waiting an invitation from Treefrog, Marion, Kat and others when they do another garden party and they know in advance and it is on a Sat or Sun. Of course for me it would have to be in the fall, winter or early spring. Can't handle the heat. *roflmao* A word of caution = be careful around Lisa *hug* or she will have you growing all manner of edibles both fruits and veggies. She has corupted almost all of us. I had to tell my hubby that I do not know how that varigated lemon made it into my yard. He laughted and said, Lisa made you do it - I know. He does enjoy the benefits though. Once again, welcome and we hope to hear more from you. Linda

Thanks everyone! Jasmine is really easy here, both star and pink. Pink jasmine is about ready to bloom. Star jasmine blooms more in May and June. The star would be great going up on the fence side because it is shadier there. I'll have to use that idea!
