How do you grow cuttings off a x-mas cactus?
Comments (1)Hi. I think these are pretty easy to root. I don't know much about them, but I found a thread for you that might be helpful. I've attached the link below. It has a bunch of different opinions on how to root christmas cactus. Good luck, Gabi Here is a link that might be useful: Rooting CC's...See MoreHow much do you spend on your kids' xmas gifts?
Comments (5)Well, once again, I did it! I have a tendency to shop until I drop ... all the while forgetting what I've already gotten for the kids! When the time comes to pull it all out and wrap it up, I think "oh crap, look at all this stuff I bought them!" ... :-) But you know what? I take great joy in seeing their faces. In watching them enjoy their new things ... especially when they open something they *really, really* wanted! Priceless! This year my kids got many gift certificates, and yesterday we took the kids shopping with their gift certificates. My husband told me after we got home that my stepdaughter spent one of her certificates on a birthday gift for me (my birthday's in a few days). How special is that? I'm humbled and honored!...See MoreWhat do you do with old Xmas cards?
Comments (24)Probably because of the stage in life we're at, probably 90% of the cards we receive are photo cards with people's kids on them. So they can't really be used as gift tags, though that is a cute idea and now I'll see if any of ours can be re-used that way. I have a hard time throwing away photo cards especially of friends and family -- just seems cold -- so I usually save them in a drawer for a year or two, THEN toss them. The funny thing is when we get photo cards from DH's coworkers and my kids are like, "who the heck is that?" I agree that I am not too interested in the pictures of random coworkers' families but it seems to be a thing in DH's office -- SO many of them exchange cards and I only know who a few of them are....See MoreDo you control your trees growth or do they control you?
Comments (16)Pip, you lost me..... I said many of my fruit ripen and yes, I do get sweet fruit.Just not as good as the southern states in the middle of winter and I don't think any of us can even come as close as to that climate at best without the perfect set up which a majority of us do not have. Many ripen on my porch at cool temps and many ripen as soon as I put them out in spring. Many ripen in my work place and in my sunny greenhouse..It varies... What I think is extremely counter production is, trying to ripen them in a room only limited with winter sun in doors...They fall off, stay small. get bugs, or dry out. So if wants wants fruit just as good as the southern states, they must invest in a place that provides lots of sun and warmth, but cool nights too. ) Hey Hobby, great to see a happy person back one that knows how to treat others...I hear you..Many are afraid to cut trees back, let alone roots, which everyone eventually should do growing in containers..It keeps them very healthy.....See Moreroxanna7
