Posted these before, all Rebutias.

Stephania perrieri

Bowiea and a Hoya

Anthurium superbum

Ask me again after I go to the Connecticut Cactus and Succulent show in a couple of weeks :-)

topsy turvy, mystery cactus, and a blue spruce that I dont have a picture of.

The parodia(no it doesnt have double areoles).

here's the blue spruce I mentioned earlier

No offense eryn, but thats one plant id like to throw away..

Had one, didnt do anything for 6 years except turn itself into a small dense bush and caught pests..... bye bye....

Have another , shares its pot with sedum spurium, but have not managed to get a piece growing proper of the latter on its own...

Plant it outdoors, in ground if you can. It is hardy - grows in my zone - and will look good if in enough light. Nice bluish groundcover. Never had any pests on it, growing it for at least 10 yrs.

Stupidlazydog, I love that Anthurium superbum . Did you pick that plant up at the Orchid show here in New Hampshire? I almost bought one from them sellers from Ecqaudor. I love this plant. I was afarid it would react badly to dry home conditions being more like a fern that is use to growing in a vbery tropical moist environment. It looks fantastic in your care. Great job. Any special treatment?

Nancy, and here I thought you ran out of room in your house..lol. I'll bet you can't wait until most can go outside you can actually walk around with space again. Nice ones.

Everyone else, beautiful.

Mike, I bought the Anthurium at Ballek's Greenhouse on one of my spring fever jaunts a couple of weeks ago. I think the leaves are really beautiful. I do have a humidifier in our sun room where the plant is. Hopefully it will do o.k. even though it's not exactly in a tropical rain forest, lol! Time will tell.

Aloe broomii. Had one did great. One of the better plants i donated. Mine stated out like yours. 7 years later it as roughly 12cm wide, with a dense rosette.

Stefan, did it ever flkower and what did they look like? I am thinking I now want one lol

Nancy, you are killing me..Lol

Stupidlazydog, can you believe there is still tons of snow in Vermont?!! Unbelievable. I hope you had a great tme. As for that plant, I think it will love being near you. It might rebel at first but once it grows to love you, and fits right in with your dogs and husband and such, it will know it's safe to do as it pleases..Ha)

They get pretty big, no. Mine wasnt mature. To be fair, it was a youngling when i got it, and my conditions arent tip top. DIdnt etiolate at all though. Aloes do grow slowly though.

Nancy, that Hoya was labeled H. kentiana variegata. It does look just like wayettii, maybe they're the same? I'll probably go to the cactus show early on the first day. Would love to meet you there :-)

Mike, We're up in VT again now for a few days. Still plenty of snow. So nice to ski when it's not brutally cold :-)

Holes can be drilled, quite easy if terracotta/clay pots. Also glazed ceramic, metal - all using appropriate drills. Even glass, with diamond tip drill bit. Done all of them but glass (but I do not use glass containers for plants). Here are couple I just did - big round 'dish' and glazed that I already potted into (2 holes in that one):

These are drill bits I used:

Here are my latest purchases

Whole group.

Eryn, thanks. Too funny on tongue twister!! They were a birthday gift a year or so ago. They came in a box of six, one was broken in shipping :( There is a small drainage hole, pea size. I notice that the pots are slightly rounded, so I have to be careful to not let plants grow in too long otherwise they will be difficult to get out.

I don't know which seller it was, but I know they were from Amazon.

Isde, very nice, I like all the spikes!! I don't believe I've ever seen some of those. Neat!

Isde nice selection you have there. Makes me wanna go plants shopping. ;)

Thanks Ycloh1. Grab me a few more while you're at it :-D

Looks like Out of Africa time, eh? They look great!. I got one of those little Sapini last year. I'm always too nervous to order plants this time of year, because it still can be so cold :-(

Isde I can post some images which will make you drool.. ;) was there last 2 weeks ago. These r huge caudex.

The 2 on the right are fockea edulis

Thanks Sld. How's your sapina doing? It's been warmer than usual here lately so I took a gamble lol.

Ycloh1 talk about drooling.... I would've been out of money. They're gorgeous.

Eryn ... If you drill from inside the pot with an inch or so of water in it the water keeps it cool. The carbide bits are available in many sizes as rina showed. You can drill in stone also, makes nice pockets for trailing plants in a garden setting.
