Comments (14)I'm here!! Have missed all of you!!! Have had computer problems along with several other small crisises! Been trying to read and catch up. I have lost nearly all of my brugs that I dug up and put in pots when I moved. With no GH this year as I have had in past years, I covered everthing with frost cloths, but it did not protect them. Most are dead down to and including the roots. Some may come back but I lost most of my doubles and my really nice singles. I have got all my new beds dug and ready for planting but have to see what survives then will start planting. Karyn--glad you will be able to come to FL again. At least it is warmer down there than up here in Jax!! I may have to consider moving south! Will have to make a GH this summer and be better prepared!! I am ready for SPRING!!!!!

Comments (38)Georgia, If the other SN's don't work out I can give you a small rooted plant in the spring~ so just email me if you need it... I know what it is like to have to start over and to lose your brug collection and all your hard work down the drain, and how devastating it can be. I lost mine in the fall of 2005 due to flooding from H. Rita. We had 6 ft of flood water in our yard and a few into the house (our house was up 4 ft) I was on the LA coast then and had quite a nice brug collection prior. Most slowly rotted away due to humidity and salt water in the weeks after the flood. Even some of the cuttings I brought into the house eventualy succumbed to rot due to humidity/mildew etc. I almost gave up growing brugs for awhile, and wouldn't even accept any more cutting from anyone because I was completely disgusted! Now I am finally pretty much back to where I started with the old varieties (though I don't have all of them- but most) and of course lots of new ones too. ~SJN...See MoreMissing members
Comments (13)We have a red merle Australian Shepherd called Obie - a big male (95lbs) and 12 years old so FINALLY calmed down a bit. He is very smart, incredibily treat-oriented for behavior decisions, and a good protector for his adopted sister Muttley (black mutt terrier/heeler mix sort of thing) and a wonderful guard dog. Loves the postman although likes it best when he can see him face to face as opposed as to through the window. A major Frisbee fan who has treasured his old red toy for ten years now. He was a terrible puppy, but has grown into a well behaved very stately animal in his old age. He is a great dog (as is Muttley). Muttley, btw, is named after the black dog in the Hanna Barbara cartoon called Wacky Races. Remember a guy called Dick Dastardly who had a dog who always made a gnashing noise. Well, little Mutt is named after that dog if anyone remembers the cartoon. She is a chaser and 12 as well although acts like a six year old....See MoreMissing member?
Comments (13)I have moved all the plants inside now. It is starting to be cold overnight, and is raining a lot. Wet & cold isn't too good for succulents as I always suggested, lol. I need to organize mst of it yet, & may need more lights...Kevin, I don't remember the sedum, it was likely something common. I got few nice plants from you like this gasteria - it was just a single plant then. This has been already divided, I should do it again or repot. It is in a 4" pot now. And, of course, I still have too many jades!!! I did get rid of number of them, but still have too many. Hope to have some blooming this year....See More- 8 years agolast modified: 8 years ago
