Hello all My Dear Friends

8 years ago

I will now try to become more active, im on summer break from school. Sad to say, I don't have much of a houseplant collection. While I was away doing homework and being buisy I haven't taken good care of my plants, and they were holding on, but I found scale on many of them and had to throw them away! I hope you are all well, and this gardenweb switch hasn't scared many away. Tiffany, Hopefulauthor(Birdsandblooms?), asleepinthegarden,Rhizo and others, have a blessed day, I will be back later

Kind Regards-Rhamel :)

Nope, I moved it outside, and it couldn't take it like I thought it could, so it got burned, funny though :) Happy to see you asleep :)

Hope you are having a blast this summer! Good to hear from you. By the time you get to the age where most people start with plants, you'll already have those first dead plants everyone has in their learning curve under your belt, improving dramatically. And nothing can be done about time. If you figure that out, you'll be the richest guy on the planet.

Well... it seems you went from a not so great Christmas with poor weather that hampered your family plans and your greenhouse, to a very nice New Year's Eve with more family stopping in to visit! Things always seem to have a way of working out... and it was a good year... I'll agree with that! Welcome to 2009! I did manage to stay awake well past midnight... Larry and I watched a couple of movies together... and before I knew, it was almost 2:00am! My first surprise of the New Year is Star of Holland... which opened, and doesn't look like Star of Holland! It's way too white with not enough red to be the right variety, but I like this one... whatever it is! I'll try to get a few new photos posted for an identification. In the meantime, I hope everyone can begin the New Year with a smile! So far, the day is dawning with bright sunshine... a good sign if ever there was one!

Hello you guys! Im great! Still buisy this summer(summer job, working at 2 local gardenclubs, growing vegetables at home, practicing chess on chess.com) But less buisy. The plants I can always count on are my spiders. This is a bad age to have may houseplants like I do, for I have a lot on my plate, not to mention I will be in a university before I know it.........Its weather wise been very mild but I hear in the south its not........

Hello !

I'm a Mississippi native , and have lived in MI. CA and am currently "transplanted " ( pun intended) in TX . Friends bring me their problem plants to revive and I've never had a problem growing anything, rooting anything or creating anything that would make any horticulturist proud.....until now. I am having the hardest time with an angelwing begonia. Any ideas why I can't get a rooting to survive ? Keep in mind, I'm not a rookie. My plants thrived in MICHIGAN !

Hi new friend, Dawn! You might want to start a new discussion about your Begonias. More answers likely that way.

TG, it's seriously hot! I'm already finished with outside tasks for today & still trying to cool off. Whew! 'Tis the season to wish for rain every afternoon.

That's too bad about your plants

But yes, the good ol Spiders can make it through anything! Up North here it's been mostly off and on rain and cloudiness.... A few days of sunshine And 20+ weather.

But when I go to my cabin next week the temperatures will be almost too the 40's! I hope my future house plant banana hasn't dried out!

I don't visit as often anymore, so it's nice to say hi to everybody! Aw, our teengardener getting ready to go to college! ;-)

So, do you know what you want to major in, yet? Have you decided on a school?
